Transcribed Image Text:**Transcription for Educational Website**
The image displays a before-and-after comparison of a sequence of letters labeled "Original" and followed by a question mark. The letters are arranged along two horizontal orange lines.
- **Original Arrangement (Top Line):**
- The letters are aligned in the order: A, B, C, D, E, F.
- There is a small white circle placed between B and C on the orange line.
- **Rearranged Sequence (Bottom Line):**
- The letters are rearranged to: A, D, C, B, E, F.
- The white circle is now positioned between C and B on the orange line.
**Explanation:**
The rearrangement involves switching the positions of the letters B and D while all other letters remain in their original positions. The white circle appears to signify the point in the sequence where a change has been made, highlighting the difference between the original and rearranged sequences.
