Although A seems to be the best among the choices, this question is having a fundamental flaw. The use of the relative pronoun 'who' to refer to the young ones of the female pandas is highly dubious. Choice D and E, however, are worth looking at for bringing out the misplaced modification to the fore.

Rssing.com should be avoided, I feel.

In option A, 'a process' can refer to the actions of previous clause...gestate, giving birth, feed on themselves.
I dropped A and chose E coz I thought it can refer to gestate or feed on themselves
How to make sure that it is referring to which action

A) Female pandas gestate only for 2 to 3 months before giving birth to young ones who start to feed themselves, a process that frees

How does "a process" point to "gestate" and not something like "giving birth"?
