The correct answer is
B. Neither of the students has submitted his assignment. "Neither" is a singular pronoun. Therefore, it requires a singular verb (has), not a plural verb (have, are, or were).

Answer B. Neither of the students has submitted his assignment

"Neither" is a singular pronoun, so it requires a singular verb ("has") and a singular possessive ("his")

The correct answer is B. Neither of the students has submitted his assignment.The word "Neither" is a singular subject meaning "not one nor the other." Because it is strictly singular, it must take a singular verb (has) and a singular pronoun (his). Options A, C, and D are all incorrect because they mistakenly use plural verbs (have, were, are) or plural pronouns (their).
