Correct Answer: If you persist in doing


Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

The gerund form of the verb persisting should be replaced with persist, which is the base form of the verb to make the sentence grammatically accurate, as it is the case of the first conditional.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: If you persist in doing what you are, you may land into trouble.
