The segment that contains an error in the sentence is "kid's", since the possessive noun uses the apostrophe incorrectly, as further explained below.

The error in the possessive noun

For this question we must analyze the sentence below:

  • The children at the preschool love their teachers, and the teachers always have the kid's best interests at heart.

At first, it may seem difficult to find an error, but if we look closely, we will see that the use of the apostrophe in the possessive noun "kid's" is incorrect.

The problem with the possessive noun is that it is supposed to be plural. The teacher care about the interests of all kids, not just one. If "kids" is a plural noun, then the apostrophe ( ' ) should appear after the letter -s that is already present in the word.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be:

  • The children at the preschool love their teachers, and the teachers always have the kids' best interests at heart.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answer provided above is correct.
