    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    Let the missing terms of the series be x1 and x2.
    Thus, the sequence 2, 15, 4, 12, 6, 7, x1, x2 is a combination of two series:
    I. 2, 4, 6, x1 and
    II. 15, 12, 7, x2
    I consists of consecutive even numbers. So, missing term, x1= 8
    The pattern in II is - 3, - 5, ........So, missing term x2 = 7 - 7 = 0
