hi vamsi44 and gmat8268,
ans should be A and this is WHY
1) discovered
are we taking about a noun a or a clause??
if we are talking of a discovery of some item, we avoid THAT
But if we are talking of an observation, making the part after discovered as a clause, USE that.
C and D can be eliminated
2) B can be easily eliminated for usage of BEING and awkward construction
3) usage of were
were makes the portion SUBJUNCTIVE, which is not te case here when we look at the non-underlined portion
E is eliminated on this point
ans A
