B Correct answer
Explanation

'Each phenomena' is a misfit. Each is singular and hence should be followed by singular noun 'phenomenon'. Also, 'every' is a more suitable adjective in place of each, since the focus is not individual item, but individual items in a large group.  Option (2) corrects both the errors.
