WHY SINGULAR VERB
ذهــــب الطلاب المجتهدون إلى اسطنبول
ذهـبـــت الطالبات المجتهدات إلى اسطنبول
الطلاب المجتهدون ذهبــــوا إلى اسطنبول
الطالبات المجتهدات ذهبـــــن إلى اسطنبول
ًWhen the verb is placed in the begining of sentence with a plural subject, it must be SINGULAR. You can't say ذهبوا الطلاب because الضمير (واو الجماعة) -that is attached to the verb- can't refer to a subject that comes after. The same in the case of the sentence with a plural but feminine noun.
However, you put the verb in the masculine plural form ذهبوا when it comes AFTER a plural noun.
ADJECTIVE
No effect of using a singular verb on the adjective in case of placing it in the begining. the adjective -describing a plural masculine noun- is plural and masculine المجتهدون.
المجتهدة is a singular feminine adjective describing for example الطـالــبة neither الطلاب nor الطالبات.
جمع التكسير
You say الطلاب المجتهدون
but الاشجار الكثيرة
Both nouns are جمع تكسير.
الطلاب is rational so the adjective is masculine plural, whereas Singular and feminine adjectives are commonly used for non-human plural nouns(جمع تكسير)
I hope that helps :)
