    Question

    Select the most appropriate option to substitute the highlighted segment.
    There was a bell over the door that jingled whenever a customer entered.

    A.

    which jingled wherever

    B.

    who jingles whenever

    C.

    No substitution

    D.

    that jingle when

    Correct option is C

    The correct substitution of the highlighted words is (c) No substitution.
    Explanation: The original sentence is grammatically and contextually correct. "That jingled" is a defining relative clause referring to "bell," and "whenever a customer entered" correctly uses past tense for a habitual past action.
    Grammatical rule used: A defining relative clause gives essential information and uses "that" or "which" for objects.
    Example: I remember the bell that jingled every time the door opened.
