Correct option is B
The segment of the sentence that contains a grammatical error is option
(b) was the most latest one.
Explanation:
· The phrase "most latest" is incorrect because "latest" is already a superlative form and does not require "most" as an intensifier. The correct phrase should be "the latest one."
·
Corrected Sentence:
"The data which she presented was the latest one on the matter under discussion."
Grammatical Rule Involved:
·
Superlative Adjectives: Superlative adjectives, like "latest," "best," and "tallest," are used to describe the highest degree of a quality and do not need additional words like "most" or "more." The word "most" is used to form the superlative of adjectives that do not already have a specific superlative form (e.g., "most interesting").
Example for Clarity:
·
Correct: "This is the latest report."
·
Incorrect: "This is the most latest report."
