The following sentence has been split into four segments. Identify the segment that contains a grammatical error and select the option which rectifies that error.

A lot of adulterants / are chemicals that can lead / to an range of health problems / in both children and adults.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. to an range of health problems.

"An" is incorrect before "range" because "range" starts with a consonant sound.

The correct article should be "a" instead of "an."

Corrected sentence: A lot of adulterants are chemicals that can lead to a range of health problems in both children and adults.
