Correct Answer: the tundra biome have been linked


Solution : The third option is correct.

  • The error is in the subject-verb agreement. Rapid climate warming is a singular subject, so the verb have should be changed to its singular form, "has " to match the subject correctly.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: Rapid climate warming in the tundra biome has been linked to increasing shrub dominance.
