Explanation
Reading the parts: 'sociological theories distinguish social movements (S) along two axes, whether they seek (Q) radical or limited change and whether they focus on (P) the entire society or on specific individuals (R).' This forms a coherent sentence describing the two-axis classification of social movements. S sets up the subject and verb, Q introduces 'two axes', P gives the first axis, and R completes with the second axis. Hence the correct order is S Q P R, option (d).
