  2. the most vital

  3. is

  4. either

  5. No error
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Not the largest either can be used if the sentence had earlier stated one other quality that the heart does not have. For example, the sentence can state that The heart is not softest organ or the largest either. Here, the sentence is talking only about the size and the either is redundant.
