By using tiny probes as neural prostheses, surgeons may be able to restore nerve function in quadriplegics and make the blind see or the deaf hear.
A.
By using tiny probes as neural prostheses,
there are no errors in option A... the modifier "By using tiny probes as neural prostheses" correctly modifies surgeons---
Correct!B.
Through the use of tiny probes used as neural prostheses,
the contrast makes no sense! ----
wrong!!C. By using tiny probes, which will function as neural
prostheses?Its not meant to be a question we know that tiny probes can be used as neural prosthesis---
wrong!D. As neural prostheses, and by using tiny probes,
1)the surgeons themselves are not neural prostheses
2)As cannot be followed by a noun or a noun phrase-----
wrong!E. Since the use of tiny probes as neural prostheses,
option E means:
Since the time when tiny probes were used, surgeons may be able to restore....
this option makes no sense--- it has a meaning error
because we need the modifier to modify the "how aspect" how will surgeons restore nerve function?---
wrong!
