Answer 2

The correct sentence using infinitive is written as: Big Data helps to monitor the outbreaks of epidemics and disease.

• The infinitive is a grammatical word for a fundamental verb that frequently functions as a noun.
• The word "to" is frequently used before it.
• In this particular example infinitive is used as a noun.
• The rule for the infinitive, when used as a noun is:

1. The infinitive form of a verb is sometimes employed as a noun instead of a verb.

• In this sentence, "to monitor" is the object of the verb "Big data helps".

• Hence, the infinitive verb can be used in sentence.
