The correct sequence of the location of the following sea ports of India from south to north is provided in option 3. This means that the order is Thiruvananthapuram, Cochin, Calicut, and Mangalore.

Let`s analyze each option to understand why option 3 is the correct answer:

Option 1: Cochin, Thiruvananthapuram, Calicut, Mangalore

This option starts with Cochin, which is correct as it is located further north than Thiruvananthapuram. However, it places Calicut before Thiruvananthapuram, which is incorrect. Thiruvananthapuram is located further south than Calicut, so the order is incorrect.

Option 2: Calicut, Thiruvananthapuram, Cochin, Mangalore

This option starts with Calicut, which is the correct southernmost port. However, it places Thiruvananthapuram after Calicut, which is incorrect. Thiruvananthapuram is further south than Calicut. Therefore, this option is also incorrect.

Option 3: Thiruvananthapuram, Cochin, Calicut, Mangalore

This option correctly arranges the sea ports
