Correct Answer: woodpecker has a different


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The error lies in the subject-verb agreement. The word "bones" is a plural noun, so the verb "have" should be used instead of "has" to maintain proper agreement between the subject and the verb.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: "The skull bones of a woodpecker have a different chemical composition and density."
