    A Approximately, the buildup is 50 percent larger at Mars' South Pole than that at its North Pole. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B The buildup is about 50 percent at large at Mars' South Pole than that at its North Pole. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    D The buildup is about 50 percent larger at Mars' South Pole than that at its North Pole. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All are correct Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    (d) is the correct sentence. Errors in the other sentences are as follows: (a) - The adverb 'Approximately' is incorrectly placed. (b) - The phrase 'at large' means 'as a whole' and is therefore incorrect in the sentence. (c) - 'than its' implies incorrect comparison since 'buildup' is being wrongly compared to 'North Pole'.
