(III) has the effective effect to say

Options

A. Only (I) is correct
B. Only (II) is correct
C. Both (I) and (III) are correct
D. All are correct

Answer

A

Explanation

"Is the most effective way of staying" is the correct phrase to make the sentence grammatically correct as the sentence is in generalized and factual form. Thus the use of "could" or "can" is incorrect in this case. Moreover, the phrases connected with the conjunction "and" should be in similar form. Thus among the given options, only option (I) has the correct grammer structure to correctly fit into the sentence. Hnec (a) is the correct option.
