Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is Sugar and flour are needed for the recipe.

The correct answer is are.

Explanation:

Usage of is:

Is is commonly used with singular objects. We sometimes use is for collective nouns too.

Usage of are:

Are is usually used with plural objects (ie two or more).

When we use the correct form of verb in a sentence it is called a subject verb agreement and it is very easy to determine if we need to use is or if we need to use are in a simple sentence.

Here there are sugar and flour and both of them are required for the recipe. So as we can see we should be using the word are in the sentence.

So the correct answer is:

Sugar and flour are needed for the recipe.
