    B cover and increased artificial lighting may Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    E No error Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The error is in part (3). The structure "force animals to adapt or facing challenges" is incorrect. The verb "facing" should be in its base form "face" to parallel the verb "adapt." It should read "force animals to adapt or face challenges."
