Hint: A noun is a term that serves as the name of a single entity, such as living entities, locations, acts, attributes, states of nature, or concepts, or a group of things. The noun, however, is not a semantic type, so it cannot be described in terms of its meaning. Acts and states of life can also be conveyed by verbs, attributes through adjectives, and positions through adverbs.

Complete answer:
Nouns are words that name persons, objects, locations, animals, etc.
By adding a's' to it, we form the plural noun.
Option A:' Egg' is a single noun that names the already growing embryos. It's not a plural noun and A is incorrect, hence.
Option B: the plural form of the noun 'egg' is 'Eggs'. Option B is also right.
Option C: Since 'A': 'egg' is not a plural noun, so, it is also incorrect.
Option D: It is also incorrect because the answer lies only in B.
Hence the correct answer is option ‘B’.

Note: For singular verbs, singular nouns go, while plural nouns go with plural verbs. As a convention, if the verb's last letter is s, it is singular, while the verb is plural if it is not kept in mind that this only refers to the third person. Plural verbs in the first or second person do not have as; they are similar to the singular verb.
