Select the option that expresses the given sentence in positive degree of comparison.
He was greater than any other physiologist of the century.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. No other physiologist of the century was as great as he was.
To convert into a positive degree, we use- "as + adjective + as".
The adjective here is "great", so we use "as great as".
The phrase "No other physiologist of the century" ensures that he remains the greatest in comparison. This means that no other physiologist was as great as him.
Hence, the correct sentence is:- "No other physiologist of the century was as great as he was."
