the titanic was drowning in the pacific ocean

Answer 1

Answer:

the titanic sank in the pacific ocean

Answer 2

ANSWER:

The correct sentence without error is ‘the titanic sank in the Pacific Ocean’.

EXPLANATION:

    The actual meaning of drowning is dying due to the presence of a large amount of liquid in your lungs. By this, we can understand that ships cannot drown because it does not breathe air, but it can sink. So the first and the fourth options can be neglected.  

    In the second option, the verb is present in its present participle form. We know that the fact is a past. So the second option can also be ignored.
