Aging is a property of all animals that reach a fixed size at maturity, and the variations in life spans among different species are far greater as that among individuals from the same species: a fruit fly is ancient at 40 days, a mouse at 3 years, a horse at 30, a man at 100, and some tortoises at 150.


(A) among different species are far greater as that among individuals from

(B) among different species are far greater than that among individuals from

(C) among different species are far greater than those among individuals of

(D) between different species are far more than that between individuals of

(E) between different species are greater by far than is that between individuals from

This statement is talking about 4 animals.We can Eliminate D and E, with this logic.

Among is used for greater than 2 things, whereas Between is used for 2 things.


(A) among different species are far greater as that among individuals from
greater as -> Incorrect, It should be greater than

(B) among different species are far greater than that among individuals from
variations in life spans -> plural whereas That is singular pronoun Incorrect

(C) among different species are far greater than those among individuals of
Correct Answer.

What is "that" wrong in B??
