## Answer

1. A recent research has revealed that more than 60,000 species of trees are available globally.
2. The BCGI (Botanical Gardens Conservation International), a charity that compiled the list of trees on the basis of data gathered from its network of 500 members organizations.

4. The data will be kept updated with the discovery of new species or the extinction of some said the researchers.
5. All the data required for the world's trees is now available in one database, thanks to Global Tree Search.

## Explanation

The correct sequence flows logically from the initial discovery of species counts to the organization responsible, the methodology used, the future maintenance of the records, and finally the accessibility of the database.

(Sentence 1): The first sentence introduces the research finding that over 60,000 tree species exist globally, setting the context for the rest of the information. (Sentence 2): The second sentence explains that the BCGI, a charity organization, compiled the data based on its extensive network. (Sentence 3): The third sentence elaborates on how researchers collected the data over two years from various sources, including experts and published content. (Sentence 4): The fourth sentence highlights that the database will be updated as new species are discovered or some go extinct. (Sentence 5): The final sentence concludes by stating that all necessary data on trees is now consolidated in one database, thanks to Global Tree Search.

## Hints

- Look for the sentence that introduces the total number of species as the starting point.
- Notice how the organization mentioned in the second paragraph is further explained by the research process in the following sentences.
