Which can only modify a noun,here "which" has to modify the clause "that the weather being hotter & more humid than average" is responsible for the slowing down

problem: modification error.
'Which' must immediately follow the noun it is modifing/describing. here, it is not the ohio region that is causing the slow metabolism but rather, it is the whether.
on that note, A C, and D, are out.
Also in d, 'being' not always correct on the gmat.
in E, 'having been' is not relevant here.
Correct answer is B
