Question : Find the part of the given sentence that has an error in it. If there is no error, choose 'No Error'.
Without the greenhouse effect, Earths temperature would be below freezing.
Option 1: Earths temperature would
Option 2: be below freezing.
Option 3: Without the greenhouse effect,
Option 4: No Error
Correct Answer: Earths temperature would
Solution : The first option is correct.
The error in the original sentence lies in the incorrect use of the word earths . It lacks the apostrophe (') , which is needed to indicate possession or ownership. When referring to something that belongs to or is associated with Earth, the correct form to use is Earth's .
In the corrected version the apostrophe ( 's ) shows possession, indicating that the temperature is associated with Earth.
Therefore, the corrected sentence would be, "Without the greenhouse effect, Earth's temperature would be below freezing".
