Descending approximately 4,000 years ago from the African wildcat, it has been an exceedingly short time for the domestic cat with respect to genetic evolution and it scarcely seems sufficient to allow the marked physical changes that transformed the animal.

i am confused between b and e , because e uses new terms , otherwise e should be the obvious choice. can anyone explain in detail what exactly is wrong with b ?

According to me the correct answer is "B"
B. The domestic cat descended from the African wildcat approximately 4,000 years ago, which is an exceedingly short time for the domestic cat's genetic evolution and scarcely sufficient for the marked physical changes that transformed the animal
Since both exceedingly short time and scarcely sufficient refer to the time that is 4000 years. All other choices are not providing this reference.
What is an OA
Plz do provide OA with every post.
I request moderators to take this into consideration that people should provide OA and if not available then should provide the source of the question.
