'Health Benefits' is plural. Hence, instead of 'comes' we have to use 'come'
Therefore choices (A) and (B) are out

'they' could refer to either 'health benefits' or 'compounds'. Hence, rule out option (E).

using keyword THAT(restrictive clause), we are talking about same anti-oxidants that are found in tea. hence D

C is out bcz 'THAT' is missing
