Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. will be noticed.

  • The given subject has an active doer "You" hence, we need to write the statement in the active voice.
  • The chosen option contains the Grammatical Error hence, it will be the correct choice.

Correct Sentence:-

If you plant a seed, you will notice that it takes some time to grow.
