No error
The correct option is A.
Step-by-step Explanation:
1. Identify the Grammatical Rule: The phrase "one of the" is always followed by a plural noun because it refers to a single individual or item chosen from a group consisting of multiple members.
2. Analyze Part (A): In part (A), the phrase "One of the student" uses the singular noun "student" instead of the plural form.
3. Apply the Correction: To make the sentence grammatically correct, "student" must be replaced with its plural form, "students".
4. Corrected Sentence: "One of the students (A) / delivered an insightful analysis (B) / in class, showing a (C) / strong grasp of the material. (D)"
