Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Which included the time of gathering.
The error lies in part 3 of the statement because of the wrong use of the verb.
Concept-
- We need to replace "included" with "include" to make the statement grammatically correct.
- As the sentence is entirely in the present tense, there is no need to use the past tense. Also, the subject is "methods" not "production".
- So we need to use "include" instead of "included".
The correct sentence will be- Rasayanas are blends of tonic herbs, metals, fruits, and gums and have specific methods of production which include the time of gathering.
