Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e., 3.

The error lies in the 3rd part of the sentence. An infinitive is used to express an opinion, purpose of an action or object. As the word “resolution” is used, so, the phrase “to developing” should be replaced with “to develop” as it indicates the purpose.

The correct sentence will be-
 

Problem-solving, decision making and conflict resolution are all important processes to develop good moral character.
