Answer:

The answer is D: want - is

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the subjects

1. In the first case (the students which is plural) the verb that agree in number is want (without s) because wants is used for the third person in singular (He she, it).

2. The subject in the second option is singular (the Great Sphinx of Giza) so the correspondent verb is: is because are is used for plural
