IMO E.
We can eliminate A, B for using "which"
Eliminate C coz it uses 'and'
Between D and E...I wil gor for E, coz "that" modifies extinctions and "marks" follows the correct S-V agreement pattern.
"Extinctions mark"
OA plzz!!

A and B out for usuage of which
C uses and causing... conjunction 'and' not needed , there must be some connection as the first event leads to the second event
D again in "and it marks..." and is not needed , that in E is correct.
E correct.

i pick D here. "an event" modifies the entire previous clause. as far i know this kind of modifier is called summative modifier. i could be wrong. but it is a modifier issue and D fits the bill
