Directions: The given sentence has been broken up into four different parts. The error might be in one or more parts of the sentence. Select the option that contains the part of the sentence that is free from errors. If all are correct, mark Option E, ‘All are correct,” as your answer.

1. Her hairs became increasingly (A)/ prone for dryness and breakage due to (B)/ frequent styling and exposure to harsh environmental elements(C)/, reflecting the toll on its natural resilience and vibrancy. (D)

Option A: (A) and (B)
Option B: (A) and (C)
Option C: (A) and (D)
Option D: (C) and (D)
Option E: All are correct

Solution: The error lies in Part A, where “hairs” should be corrected to “hair” as “hair” is an uncountable noun.
Part B: “…prone for dryness and breakage due to…” Error: “for” should be corrected to “to.” The correct preposition to use after “prone” is “to.” Therefore, it should be “prone to dryness and breakage,” indicating the susceptibility of her hair to these conditions.
