A Correct answer
Explanation

Kabir (c. 1440-1518) flourished first in the 15th century. Guru Nanak (1469-1539) was a contemporary of Kabir's later years. Chaitanya Mahaprabhu (1486-1533) was active in early 16th century Bengal. Tulsidas (1532-1623) lived later, composing the Ramcharitmanas during Akbar's reign. The sequence 1-2-3-4 correctly reflects this chronological progression.
