In the following question, a sentence is divided into four parts. Choose the part of the sentence which may contain a grammatical error in it. If all the parts of the sentence are grammatically correct and contextually meaningful, choose option “No error” as the answer choice.

The list of items (A)/ are placed (B)/ on the table (C)/ for inspection. (D)

The correct option is B.

Step-by-step Explanation:
1. Identify the subject of the sentence. In the phrase "The list of items", the main subject is "The list", which is a singular noun. The prepositional phrase "of items" acts as a modifier and does not determine the number of the verb.
2. Check the subject-verb agreement. Since the subject "The list" is singular, it requires a singular verb to maintain agreement.
3. Analyze the verb in part (B). The sentence uses the plural verb "are placed". To correct the grammatical error, the plural verb "are" must be replaced with the singular verb "is".
4. Thus, the grammatically correct sentence is: "The list of items is placed on the table for inspection."

Therefore, the grammatical error is in part (B).
