Solution

The correct option is A
The analyses of data collected shows no evidence

Subject - verb agreement problem in the 1st fragment. The analyses (of data) is plural, hence the verb in 1st fragment should be 'show' and not 'shows'. We may also correct the sentence by retaining the verb 'show' and changing analyses to analysis (singular) - the error in either case is in the 1st fragment.
