Default do you think vs. do you know

Dear teachers,

My question is about embedded questions.

Among the following questions,

1) What is this?

2) Do you know what this is?

3) What do you think this is?

4) Do you think what this is?

Why does "what" in 3) come first unlike 2)?

And is 4) grammatically correct?

Thank you in advance
