In their study, they tried to find out the relationship among an organism, its habitat, and the predators present there.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The sentence "In their study, they tried to find out the relationship among an organism, its habitat, and the predators present there" is grammatically correct and logically sound.
But, there is no such option.
Some academic contexts prefer "between" to emphasize individual pairwise relationships (e.g., organism-habitat, organism-predator).
So, we can substitute ‘among’ with ‘between’.
Correct sentence should be:
In their study, they tried to find out the relationship between an organism, its habitat, and the predators present there.
