Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Earth’s resources have to be protected and sustain and we need to.
The error lies in part 1 of the statement because of the wrong use of the verb.
Concept-
- We need to replace 'sustain' with 'sustained' to make the statement grammatically correct.
- There is a requirement of V3 after 'to be' as it is there in 'to be protected'.
- So we need to use 'sustained' at the place of 'sustain'.
The correct sentence will be-
Earth’s resources have to be protected and sustained and we need to share our resources across species as we all are interconnected as one giant living organism.
