Which sentence demonstrates correct subject-verb agreement?

A Neither the students nor the teacher are ready for the test.
B Every one of the books on the shelf have a torn cover.
C The committee members, along with the chairperson, was present at the meeting.
D The flock of birds flies south for the winter.

✓ Correct Answer: Option D

In option D, 'flock' is a singular collective noun, so it takes the singular verb 'flies'. Options A, B, and C have subject-verb agreement errors ('is' for 'neither/nor', 'has' for 'every one', 'were' for 'committee members').
