A: As cannot compare nouns (as only compares clauses and actions).
B. "your ancestors" is not parallel to or a correct comparison with " you'll probably live". we need "did" for the ancestors.
C. As problems as A.
D. ancestors lived in the past. so "do" doesnt do it!! :D
E. Correct

B is incorrect because it means you will live longer than your ancestors..how is that even possible..lol
