- BError in part (b)
- CError in part (c)
- DNo error
Explanation
The long compound subject — "To love one art form ... but to be able to appreciate another and find lateral connections" — functions as a single singular subject, so the verb must be singular: "is priceless", not "are priceless". The error is in part (c); (a) and (b) are fine. Hence (C).
