Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow by choosing the correct/most appropriate options: 1. Scientists have for the first time quantified the amount of plastic waste dumped into our oceans. About eight million tons of plastic waste was dumped into the world’s oceans in 2010 and researches warn that the cumulative amount could increase more than 10-fold in the next decade unless the international community improves its waste management practices. 2. Jena Jambeck from the University of Georgia in Athens along with scientists from the US and Australia studied the sources of ocean-bound plastic around the world and developed models to estimate their annual contributions. They suggest that coastal countries generated close to 275 million tons of plastic in 2010 and that 4.8 to 12.7 million of that plastic made its way to the oceans. 3. “Our estimate of 8 million metric tons going into the oceans is equivalent to five grocery bags filled with plastic for every foot of coastline in the world,” said Jambeck. “This annual input increases each year, so our estimate for 2015 is about 9.1 million metric tons.” 4. “In 2025, the annual input would be about twice the 2010 input or 10 bags full of plastic per foot of coastline,” she continued “So the cumulative input by 2025 would equal 155 million metric tons.” 7 Which part of the following sentence contains an error?
