Question

Find the part of the given sentence that has an error in it. If there is no error, choose 'No error.'
Some bacterial cells on our hands may have genes that enabling them to be resistant to a given antibacterial agent.

A.

No error

B.

may have genes that enabling them

C.

to be resistant to a given antibacterial agent

D.

Some bacterial cells on our hands

Correct option is B

The error lies in (b).
Explanation:
The word "enabling" is incorrectly used in the sentence. The correct form should be "enable" because after the verb "may have," we need the base form of the verb. Therefore, the correct phrase is "genes that enable them."
Corrected sentence:
Some bacterial cells on our hands may have genes that enable them to be resistant to a given antibacterial agent.
