coherent paragraph are given. Decide which of the sentences are grammatically and meaningfully correct and mark the answer option that contains these sentences.  1. Inundated with popular discourse about the dangers of cocaine abuse, we can easily loose sight of the intricate web of production that lies at root of the drug trade. 2.

When most Americans think of cocaine, they picture the white, powdery substance responsible for killing thousands of U.S. consumers annually, destroying family structures, and perpetuating elaborate crime rings. 4. Rarely they do visualize the tiny, green coca leaf - the crop from which cocaine is processedSolution
