Re: Like a protein rich diet that the healthy genes need to prod

Don't anyone think that in option C, the word "they" doesn't have a clear antecedent. "They" could be referring to genes or people.


hi prashant ,
pronoun ambiguity is not the absolute rule for GMAT

GMAT will usually tolerate pronoun ambiguity if:

1)the context is obvious.
2)the pronoun is parallel.
3)the pronounis not parallel to other noun.

in this question: they ==>ambiguity is tolerable..since in option C:
the healthy genes are diminishing as more and more people adopt an urban lifestyle, in which they tend to cook less, eating more processed food and===>GENES CANT TEND TO COOK===>So it is clearly refering to people...as the context is obvious....



hope it helps
