Solution

The correct option is B likes / studies

A verb is used to express an occurrence, action, or state. It is the grammatical center of the predicate in a sentence.

An auxiliary verb is a verb which is used in the formation of tenses, moods, tones, etc.

Option B is correct as the sentences are talking about general facts. Therefore, we must use the simple present tense. Also, the subjects are singular.

The other options are wrong as no other tense can be used here.

The correct answer is B) likes/ studies
