a) --- redundancy can be ruled out easily
b) a sufficient amount of people would mass production become – keep this
c) sufficient people would mass production become – missing number rules this out
d) a sufficient amount of people is mass production – keep this
e) sufficient amounts of people is mass production – amounts is incorrect
There is tossup between B & D. The sentence begins with only when hence would is correct usage so we can rule out D here. B wins!!!!
