    Solution

    A - incorrect; we need the past participle form of the verb 'list'; have/has been + the past participle. C - We need an adjective here which will describe the noun 'mothers'. 'New' is the correct word to be used here. D - There are two ways we can make this sentence correct. Either by using 'for stemming' or by using 'to stem'. B is grammatically correct and meaningful. Hence, option B is the correct answer.
