187. By analyzing the advanced olfactory apparatus of Pleistocene chordates, paleozoologists have discovered a link between the brain’s regions of scent discrimination and its regions of long-term memory storage, a link that could prove invaluable in the treatment of amnesia victims.
(A) paleozoologists have discovered a link between the brain’s regions of scent discrimination and its regions of long-term memory storage
(B) a link between the brain’s regions of scent discrimination and its regions of long-term memory storage has been discovered by paleozoologists
(C) there is a link that paleozoologists have discovered between the brain’s regions of scent discrimination and its regions of long-term memory storage
(D) the discovery of a link between the brain’s regions of scent discrimination and its regions of long-term memory storage was made by paleozoologists
(E) the brain’s regions of scent discrimination and long-term memory storage have a link that was discovered by paleozoologists
Why the answer is not B can any 1 plz explain
I quickly eliminated B,C,D and E just by looking at the suggested word before "a link that could prove invaluable". This phrase should be appropriately modifying "the link" stated in the sentence.
B ends with "pateozoologists". This cannot be the link that could prove invaluable referred in the sentence. So, we can also eliminate D and E.
C ends with long-term memory storage which is also incorrect.
A seems to be the only good phrase to link to the sentence.
paleontologists have discovered a link between X and Y, a link that could prove invaluable..
