Answer: The option that corrects the error in meaning and usage in the sentence provided is "Change lumine to luminescent".

Explanation: The word "lumine" is an obsolete form of the verb "illumine"; therefore, it cannot premodify a noun (in this case, "appendage"). Moreover, "lumine" is not related in meaning to the rest of the elements in the sentence. On the other hand, an adjective can premodify a noun. Furthermore, "luminescent", which is an adjective, collocates with "appendage" and is related in terms of meaning to the other elements and to the sentence as a whole. Therefore, the word that should be changed is "lumine".
