Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

Important structural damage often appears first in small signs. a single carpenter ant, for example, may be evidence of a half-destroyed joist

If the bolded segment has an error, select the answer choice that CORRECTS the error. If there is no error, select "No change."

be evidence of a half-destroyed joist.

ant for example, may

ant; for example, may

ant; for example may

No change

Answer:

No change

Explanation:

The expression "for example" was correctly placed between two commas. This was done because this expression is not essential for the sentence, but it presents extra information, which enriches the text, but which would not be missed if it were excluded, as it would not change the meaning, coherence, or cohesion of the sentence. Such expressions should be placed between two commas, indicating a pause in the reading, and a small interruption in the reading rhythm.
