Understand the Problem

The question is asking to identify grammatical errors in the given sentence. We need to assess parts A through D to find any mistakes or indicate that there is no error.

Answer

Part D

The error is in part D.

Answer for screen readers

The error is in part D.

More Information

The sentence structure in part D is incorrect. It should read 'much like flypaper traps flies' instead of 'many like flypaper traps flies.' The word 'much' should be used as it refers to the manner, whereas 'many' is usually used with countable nouns.

Tips

A common mistake is not matching the quantifier ('much' vs. 'many') with the noun type (uncountable vs. countable).
