Answer 1

Requires is the answer (c.)

Answer 2

Answer: C) requires.

Step-by-step explanation: a predicate is the part of a sentence or clause containing a verb and stating something about the subject. The simple predicate is the main verb in the predicate that tells what the subject does. In the given sentence the full predicate is "requires four years of college education," but the simple predicate is just the main verb of the sentence, which is "requires" (corresponding to option C).
