The correct answer is B although it does contain the possibly ambiguous pronoun "it." Since there isn't a better answer choice available that would get rid of the pronoun but preserve the intended meaning, the right answer choice includes the pronoun.
i analyze the question in my level. D and E are out because of modifier error and "even though" "although", "nevertheless" are not used simultaneously in a sentence i guess. correct me if i am wrong.
could you please explain the following question
To meet the rapidly rising market demand for fish and seafood, suppliers are growing fish twice as fast as
their natural growth rate, cutting their feed allotment by nearly half and raising them on special diets
A) their natural growth rate, cutting their feed allotment
B) their natural growth rate, their feed allotment cut
C) growing them naturally, cutting their feed allotment
D) they grow naturally, cutting their feed allotment
E) they grow naturally, with their feed allotment cut
the OA is D. i didnt use the spoiler because i have to learn some specific things from the answer. In D they can refer fish as well as suppliers. in this situation how can i determine that "they" refers to fish.
thanks in advance
