Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Our thought have a direct impact on our body.

The error lies in part 1 of the statement because of the wrong use of the verb.

Concept-

  • We need to replace "have" with "has" for making the statement grammatically correct.
  • As the verb is being used for "thought" that is singular we need to use a singular verb.
  • So we need to use "has" at the place of "have".

The correct sentence will be-

Our thought has a direct impact on our body and hence they crucially affect our emotional and physical well-being too.
