Answer 1

Answer:

The gland consist has grammatical error

Explanation:

Gland is singular so it need singular consists

The corrected answer is The gland consists

Answer 2

The grammatical error is "The gland consist"

"The gland" is a third person singular number. So, the verb which should be used here is 'consists', not 'consist'.

So, the corrected sentence will be : The gland consists of clumps and strands of chromaffin cells.

As the subject is third person singular number, the verb that will be used after this, will be 'consists' as this is a simple present tense.
