Explanation

The given sentence contains a grammatical error related to the use of the superlative form of the adjective "tall." Let's analyze the options: (a) the most tall - This option is incorrect because it uses "the most tall," which is not the correct way to form the superlative form of the adjective "tall." (b) most tallest - This option is incorrect as well. Using both "most" and "tallest" together is redundant and grammatically incorrect. 13 adda247.com/teachers | www.sscadda.com | www.bankersadda.com | www.adda247.com (c) the tallest - This option is the correct improvement.
