Correct Answer: at the sphere of knowledge.
Solution : The error lies in the fourth option.
The preposition "at" suggests a specific location or point, which doesn't fit the context of "sphere of knowledge". The correct preposition to indicate involvement or inclusion within a field or domain is "in".
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: During the seventeenth century, there were great developments in the sphere of knowledge.
