Recaptcha provided by Google is not 100% accurate

I am using Recaptcha using the following link http://www.google.com/recaptcha

But, I observed, it not 100% accurate. It validates as success, if we type 2-3 letters wrongly.

Is there a setting, which will make it 100% accurate.

enter image description here

Now, If a user types "tentace veri", it still validates SUCCESS. Why can't it be 100% accurate.

No, Recaptcha only knows about one word, it's using crowdsourcing for the other, that's why it says "digitizing ..." it's actually using humans to digitize pieces of books. You could type in tentace helium and it would work. There's even an internet movement to replace the second word with a dirty word. You can tell which one it knows about because it distorts it.
