I think the correct answer among the choices presented above is option B. The error in the meaning and the usage of a word in the sentence can be corrected by changing <span> lumine to luminescent. 

</span>The angler fish has a rather strange <span>luminescent</span> appendage that lookslike something to eat if you are another fish looking for a sumptuous meal.

The correct answer is B. change lumine to luminescent.


We need an adjective in front of the word <em>appendage </em>and <em>lumine </em>is not an adjective. It is a verb, a rather obsolete verb, which means the same as <em>to illuminate, to brighten up. </em>On the other hand, luminescent is an adjective, and it means <em>producing light. </em>
