Answer:

The correct answer is LACK OF PARALLEL STRUCTURE.

Explanation:

In "when we returned home, we started to clean the den and began washing the dishes" there is no parallel structure.

Parallel structure is the repetition of the same grammatical pattern within a sentence.

In this case, the statement with parallel structure would be "when we returned home, we started cleaning the den and began washing the dishes".
