Correct Answer: brings


Solution : The correct option will be the fourth option.

When two nouns that are connected by " and" suggest one idea to the mind or refer to the same person or thing, they are followed by a singular noun . In this context "brings" is the right usage as age and experience suggest one idea to the mind so they are followed by a singular verb,

Therefore, the correct sentence is, "Age and experience brings wisdom to man".
