    Solution

    When there is one subject and more than one verb, the verbs throughout the sentence must agree with the subject. So here, instead of ‘allows’, ‘allow’ should be used. Most risk factors for pre-school overweight are modifiable and allow at-risk groups to be identified, say researchers.
