Correct Answer: The participants responds


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

Explanation : The subject "participants" is plural, and when the subject is plural, the corresponding verb should also be in its plural form. However, in this case, the verb "responds" is in the singular form. The correct plural form of the verb is "respond".

So, the correct sentence would be: The participants respond to a series of statements at the dance competition.
