Question
In the question given below, a sentence is given,
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 case the sentence is correct as it is, mark option (5), that is, 'No error'. Interplanetary contamination refers to a scenario into which a spacecraft carries biological material from one planetary object to another.Solution
In (2), replace the preposition "into" with "in." The phrase "a scenario in which" is the correct usage because "scenario" describes a situation or condition, not movement or direction. "Into" implies movement towards something, which does not fit here.The sentence would then read:"Interplanetary contamination refers to a scenario in which a spacecraft carries biological material from one planetary object to another."Therefore, (2) is the right answer.
