Question

Scientists are still trying to understand how the firestorms are created although weather, terrain, vegetation and characteristics of the fire itself play a role.

• A. Scientists are still trying to
• B. Understand how the firestorms
• C. Are created although weather, terrain, vegetation
• D. And characteristics of the fire itself play a role

Hint:

When using conjunctions like "and," avoid starting the sentence or clause with it. Use commas for better sentence flow and clarity.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

"Scientists are still trying to" is correct.
"Understand how the firestorms" is correct.
"Are created although weather, terrain, vegetation" is also correct.
"And characteristics of the fire itself play a role" contains an error in structure. The conjunction "and" should not begin the sentence. A comma before "and" would improve clarity.
Thus, the error is in option (4), where the sentence would be better with a comma before "and."
