    A 1-A, 1-D, 2-B Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 1-B, 2-C, 3-A Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 1-B, 2-D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 1-C, 2-D Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 1-C, 3-C Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The errors are in 1-B and 2-D. 3 has no error. In B of 1, replace the base form verb THREATEN with THREATED as the present perfect tense construction HAS + VERB will take the past participle form of the verb. In D of 2, replace the singular verb MAKES with the plural MAKE as the subject HORMONES is plural. Thus, (c) is the right answer.
