    C c Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D d Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E e Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    “and revising presently regulations to better address emerging challenges” Word order: “presently regulations” is incorrect.  Adverbs like "presently" can't go between a verb and its object like that. For  “current regulations,” the right word is "existing" or "current", not “presently.” “Presently” means “soon” or “at the present time,” but it's not an adjective, so it can't describe “regulations.”
