Correct Answer: No correction required


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The phrase "their heads were" is appropriately used to introduce the description of the dragons' heads. "Their" is a possessive pronoun indicating that the heads and eyes belong to a group of individuals. The subject "heads" agrees with the plural verb "were", and it is correctly structured in terms of the subject-verb agreement.

Therefore, the sentence structure is clear, and there is no correction required.
