Regarding the 2nd question:
"skin tissue is more resistant to toxic substances than lung tissue and uses..."
This actually means:
The comparison is: skin tissue (more resistant) vs. lung tissue (less resistant)
Why Option B seems tempting but is wrong:
"the resistance of skin tissue... is more than that of lung tissue, and it uses"
The problem: what does "it" refer to? "The resistance"? Resistance can't "use" sweat glands—only tissue can. This creates ambiguity and an illogical subject for "uses."
The key grammar rule: When you have a comparative structure followed by another action, the subject performing that action must be clear. Option C makes "skin tissue" the subject of both "is more resistant" and "uses," which is logical and grammatically clean.
oh okayy,got it,thank youu
How to ask good doubts? Point out the exact step you're stuck on and let us know what you've already tried. This helps others understand your thinking and guide you better.
Explain the difference in thought you have with the given solution -- that way, we can pin-point the problem without just parroting the solution again.
Note that in sentence correction, the objective is to not just see "okay, is this option error-free" but also "is this the most clear/concise/non-redundant sentence among the options? (i.e. is this the best choice among the error-free options?)
I could not understand why the answers are B and C. Which rule of grammar has been implemented in these questions?
in the first ques, the word "reducing" has been used (-ing form), so i thought the option with the word implementing will be the answer
in the second ques, the correct answer (c) sounds like skin tissue is more resistant to toxic substances than skin tissue is resistant to lung tissue .but i think an option talking about the resistance of skin tissue and lung tissue with respect to toxic substances needs to be the anwer?

Regarding the 1st question:
Option 2 and 3 are both gramatically correct. However, option 2 is more concise. Note that in sentence correction, the objective is to not just see "okay, is this option error-free" but also "is this the most clear/concise/non-redundant sentence among the options? (i.e. is this the best choice among the error-free options?). We want to just make sure that this is known by students during their course of practice.
okayyy
