Correct option is A
The segment of the sentence that contains a grammatical error is option (a) All the school
Explanation:
· The error lies in the usage of the singular noun "school" when it should be plural "schools" to agree with the quantifier "All." The correct phrase should be "All the schools" to indicate that the statement refers to multiple schools.
Corrected Sentence:
· "All the schools have been closed in the country due to Covid-19."
Grammatical Rule:

Quantifiers with Countable Nouns: When using quantifiers like "all," the noun that follows should be plural if it refers to multiple items or instances. This is because "all" implies the entirety of a group, which is typically more than one, hence requiring a plural noun.
Correct Usage Example:
· "All the books are on the table." (Correct)
· "All the book is on the table." (Incorrect)
