No prob :)

OpenStudy (aayushi.somani):

I don't think so but it's k

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"The swim team," "Everybody," and "Nobody" are all singular subjects. "Some of the team members" requires the plural verb "are" as the words "some" and "members"--plural--indicate. Therefore, D does not fit.
