OA is B.
I was confused on the context of the question and originally had E to keep the sentence ||.

This sentence requires infinite parallel. (Eliminate C, D)
To sell the shellfish, to standardize its size, and to predict sales
A. Keep original sentence (Ok – but “to” understood – Hold it)
B. taking advantage of off-season demand, to standardize (“OK – infinite parallel and “taking advantage” correctly modifies “to sell” – Hold it)
C. taking advantage of off-season demand, standardizing
D. take advantage of off-season demand, standardizing
E. take advantage of off-season demand, to standardize (Good choice but “take advantage” requires to modify the selling not commercial farming - Eliminate it)
Answer: B
