In the following sentence,four words or phrases have been underlined.One of them is incorrect.Select the INCORRECT word or phrase from the given options. There are clear indications that the situation  deteriorates significantly. Correct Answer Deteriorates

  • The correct answer is option 3, i.e.'Deteriorates'.
  • 'Are clear' is correct because 'indications' is a plural number.
  • 'That' is correctly used here because it is appropriately joining these two sentences.
  • 'Significantly' is correctly used here because it is an adverb which is used to qualify the verb.
  • 'Deteriorates' is inappropriate because the action is already indicated.So, present perfect tense must be used here. 'Has deteriorated' should be used here.
  • Hence option 3, is the answer.
