Hi !!

The CORRECT ANSWER is B

Explanations :

The subjects when connected by or, nor, not only may be singular or plural.

So the verb will agree either in singular or plural depending on the subject.

EX :

Amy or Sharon is coming. => one singular subject

My parents or my sisters are coming. => one plural subject

-

CAREFUL

When connected with and, always take plural =>

Amy and Sharon are coming. = 2 subjects
