The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Subject-verb agreement 
“Each” is singular, so the verb should be singular: “has submitted”.

Step 2: Analyze pronoun 
Though “their” is plural, it is often used for singular indefinite pronouns in modern English for gender neutrality.

Step 3: Error is in verb “have submitted” 
It should be “has submitted”.
