Hint: In the given sentence, there is an error in one of the spellings. You have to figure out that spelling and choose the appropriate spelling. Take note that the sentence is grammatically correct. Therefore, we have to just check the spelling of the given question.

Complete answer:
 Option a is the correct answer because the spelling "explaination" is wrong in the given sentence. In the correct spelling, there is no "i" while writing “explanation” even though the word explain has an "i".
Option b is wrong because as already has been mentioned in the hint, there is no grammatical error in the sentence. So the usage of the helping verb "is" is correct and there is supposed to be no change in the grammar.
Option c is wrong because as already explained, using “explain” instead of “explanation” is going to make the sentence wrong and there is no grammatical error in the sentence. Explain is the verb of the noun explanation and the given sentence will become wrong if we use the verb instead of the noun.
Option d is wrong because the error is clearly in the word explanation for which we have figured out that the correct answer is a. Therefore option d does not stand.

Note:
While correcting spellings in a given sentence always check if the sentence is grammatically correct or not. Also, questions related to the correction of spellings and words include correction of punctuations as well so also keep an eye out for incorrect punctuations.
