the only reason I hesitated about E was the lack of coma before "but". but the other had their flaws, so I chose E.

Quote:
Electrons, elementary particles that exist in orbitals around the positively charged nucleus of an atom, seem similar in many ways to ordinary particles however exhibiting surprising wave-like characteristics.

Structure: Subject, modifier, verb ++

We can safely ignore the [comma]Modifier[comma] .

So effectively the sentence is :

Electrons seem similar in many ways to ordinary particles however exhibiting surprising wave-like characteristics.

Now let us see the options

(A) seem similar in many ways to ordinary particles however exhibiting Odd phrasing. Illogical Meaning

(B) are to ordinary particles very similar however exhibit. Doesn't make any logical sense

(C) are in many ways similar to ordinary particles that have been known to exhibit. Unnecessary use of progressive form. Too wordy and Awkward

(D) seem similar in many ways to ordinary particles which exhibit Illogical meaning. Ordinary particles don't exhibit, but the Electrons do. Clear Meaning error

(E) are in many ways similar to ordinary particles but also exhibit Flawless. Hence the answer
