(A) large generating plants and NASA rockets to small portable communication devices, seems to have

(B) large generating plants, NASA rockets, and small portable communication devices, seems having

(C) large generating plants, NASA rockets, and small portable communication devices, seems that it has

(D) large generating plants and NASA rockets to small portable communication devices, seems that it has

(E) large generating plants and NASA rockets as well as small portable communication devices, seems to have



The OA is A.
But "seems to have"--is this a correct usage?It refers to fuel cell which is singular.

yes fuel cell refers to seems which is singular and correct... have refers to 'become a popular and promising source of power' which is plural... read like this: the fuel seems to have/has become a popular and promising source of power... has is not the correct usage here clearly...
