3. Men's interest in developing a cure for cancer have promoted the rapid advances in the field now known as Genetic Engineering
(A) Men's interest in developing a cure for cancer have promoted
(B) Men's interest in developing a cure for cancer has promoted
(C) That men are interested in developing ac ure for cancer have promoted
(D) Interest in developing a cure for cancer has promoted
(E) Man's interest in developing a cure for cancer has promoted

The correct answer is D Why not E

Is it because it is not a single person's interest, in that case why not Option A

Interesting.. I would have chosen E too.

May be the sentence has to be specific when it uses "Man's"

Looking forward for more comments!!
