02br
00Ex. Each group [have] their own merits. (plural ) 02br
00Ex. Each group [is] separated from the next one. (singular) 02br

0'Group' is a singular noun (and 'each' is a singular determiner)-- so a singular verb is required: 'each group is/has...' 02br
02br
00And of course the full sentence should be: 'Each group has its own merits'. 02br
