Answer 1

Answer: (C)

C

Either is used when we are referring to two options, here sisters. However, the number of sisters is three. Therefore, either cannot be used and part C is erratic. Hence Option C is correct for pointing out the erratic part. The rest of the options do not, hence, incorrect.
