    In the following question, three sentences are given, revolving around the same theme or idea. Decide which of the sentences are grammatically and meaningfully correct and mark the answer accordingly. 

    1. Currently, only five species of trees or large shrubs occur naturally in Greenland, and those hardy plants grow only in scattered plots in the far south.

    2. Field experiments and ambitious gardening projects, however, have confirmed that a range of other species can get a root-hold in Greenland if given the chance. 

    3. Those species, along with the five other long-established native varieties, may began to spread as temperatures warm.
