Answer

The answer is "and is the highest".

Explanation
Option 1: being the highest

This option is grammatically incorrect because "being" does not properly connect the two clauses in the sentence.

Option 2: and is the highest

This option is correct because it properly connects the two clauses with "and," making the sentence clear and grammatically correct.

Option 3: higher than any

This option is incorrect because it does not fit well with the structure of the sentence and leaves it incomplete.

Option 4: the most high

This option is incorrect because "the most high" is not the correct superlative form to use in this context. The correct form is "the highest."
