subject is market -singular which must take singular verb-has and brings

A. uses "have" and "are" for market
B. correct, uses singular verbs
C. uses plural "bring" for market
D. uses "have" and "are" for market
E. uses "have" and "bring" for market

hence, B

Hello Scooby,
I thought "Antique things" was subject here and so I chose D

So how you arrive to check the subject here is Market?

the sentence broadly reads.. a market (for a and b ....) has grown out of Americas fascination with antique things.

"antique" modifies all things. the main verb is "has grown". what has grown? - a market.

if one reads making antique things the subject: -it doesnt make sense, as antique things cant grow a market by themselves.
