I'd say that the subjunctive verb in the sentence, The doctor recommended that she take a holiday, is A. take

Recommended would be a normal verb, I'm pretty sure.

Answer:

a. take

Step-by-step explanation:

The subjunctive is not a verb form that is used often in English. This is a relatively rare way of expressing an idea. The subjunctive is employed when we want to talk about something that is desired or imagined. It is also employed when we talk about events that we are not sure will happen. Therefore, the subjunctive appears in texts that show anticipation, imagination or desire.
