Bats huddle together to get warm of each other's body.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. warmth from.

  • The error lies in underlined part.
  • In this sentence, we need a noun after the verb 'get.'
  • The meaning of the noun 'warmth' is the quality of being kind and friendly whereas the meaning of the adjective 'warm' is friendly, kind and pleasant.
  • Therefore, we need to use the noun 'warmth' after the verb.
  • Moreover, the preposition 'of' needs to be changed to 'from' as it used to show the reason for something.

The correct sentence is:- Bats huddle together to get warmth from each other's bodies.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3 i.e. warmth from.
