(A) each of which specialise in a particular business area

It should be "specialises".

(B) which specialises in particular business areas

(C) they specialise in a particular business area each

(D) all of them specialise in a particular business area

(E) each of which specialises in a particular business area






Official Explanation:



Answer: E

(A) The singular each does not agree with the plural specialize.

(B) In this case the subject is the plural divisions which does not agree with the singular specializes.

(C) This is a run-on sentence because the part after the comma is an independent clause.

(D) This too is a run-on sentence.

(E) The correct answer.
