Select the most appropriate option that can substitute the highlighted segment in the given sentence.
The intersection of nature conservation and social justice is evident in efforts to ensure that marginalised communities and other backward classes should have equal access to natural reserves.

Correct option is A

The correct substitution of the highlighted words is apparent in endeavours to guarantee.
Explanation:
· The word "evident" means "clearly visible or obvious", which is correctly replaced by "apparent".
· The phrase "efforts to ensure" can be effectively substituted with "endeavours to guarantee", as "endeavours" refers to efforts, and "guarantee" conveys the idea of ensuring something.
Grammatical Rule Used:
· "Should have" is unnecessary in this sentence because "to guarantee" already implies assurance.
· "Apparent" is a better synonym for "evident" in this context.
Example:
Incorrect: The benefits of technology are evident in efforts to improve communication.
Correct: The benefits of technology are apparent in endeavours to enhance communication.
