divided into parts. One of the parts may contain an error. Identify the part that contains the error, and mark it as the answer. Ignore errors of punctuation.

In the given sentence, the error lies in the phrase "are projecting to be." The verb form should be "projected to be" because the sentence refers to a future prediction, and the passive form "projected" is the correct usage. The corrected sentence would be: "In addition to extreme weather events, biodiversity loss and ecosystem collapse are projected to be the second most significant risk over the next ten years." Therefore, the correct answer is C.Â
