Correct Answer: Part (b)
The true subject is "The panel of experts", a singular collective noun; the parenthetical phrase "along with the chief analyst" does not change the number, so the verb must be singular "has submitted". The trap is part (a): test-takers mistake the plural "experts" for the subject and accept "have".
