Wey the fucking options? Modified: Seen now!. The correct answer is B. Why? Who there refers to previously mentioned noun which is Woman. We called this Relative Concord. Consult ur A-Z use of English  |

According to the rule of Concord Section:Relative Concord When any of who, which, that, whose refers to a previously mentioned noun or pronoun, it is a relative pronoun. Answer is B The Who there shows that she isn't the only woman selling there. That means there are Women and women(plural) attracts sell(plural), but one woman(singular) is the subject here, and woman attracts sells(singular) 1 Like |

In 'Rule Of Concord' generally known as Grammatical Functions, a singular noun goes with a singular verb while a plural noun goes with a plural verb. Singular verb takes the form of plural noun (adds letter 'S' at its end, example is SELLS) while plural verb takes the form of singular noun (does not add letter 'S' at its ends, example is SELL). Woman is a singular noun. Therefore, Option A is the correct answer. 1 Like |

The woman who sells Apples also sells Oranges. It can never be option B. A is the correct answer, why? Because there's agreement. immortalcrown, I see thee. 1 Like |
