Answer:

The answer is: B. one main verb and one or more helping verbs.

A verb phrase represents a syntactic unit which includes at least one verb and its dependents. The necessary condition is that the verb phrase always contains one main verb. It may consist of a main verb plus modal/auxiliary verbs (one or more), but it can also contain a main verb only. In any case, the main verb always comes after the helping verbs.
