Answer 2

Answer:

The fourth option is correct.

Historically, the origins of the coffee bean, though undated, lie in the indigenous trees that once grew wild in the Ethiopian highlands of East Africa.

Explanation:

• The first option that is 'lied from' is incorrect since the preposition from cannot be put here in the sentence. If there was originated instead of lied, this would have been the correct answer.

• The second options is incorrect since the sentence in question is in present tense, but the option that reads 'lies in' is in past tense.

• The third option is incorrect since the sentence in question has plural form, that is, origins, and it should have singular form of the verb.

Hence, the fourth option is correct - Historically, the origins of the coffee bean, though undated, lie in the  indigenous trees that once grew wild in the Ethiopian highlands of East Africa.
