(d) The highlighted part is incorrect as the plural form of verb 'command' should be used to agree with the noun 'surveys'. Also, 'along' is the wrong preposition to be used here. A is incorrect as the preposition 'among' should have been used. B is incorrect as the adverb 'widely' cannot qualify the noun 'respect'; we need the adjective 'wide' here. C is incorrect as the plural form of verb 'command' should be used to agree with the noun 'surveys'. Option D is the right answer.
