C. are warned about potential risks and that an independent panel
D. will be warned about potential risks and an independent panel would

Why not c?
Why the answer is e?
Warn of and warn about both ok?
There are multiple splits to eliminate answer choices.
"must" is redundant as we have the verb "ensure."
1. "established to ensure that P and Q" - P & Q should be parallel. Eliminate A, B, D.
"evaluate the experiment before it was conducted."
Would is used when a sentence talks about the future in past tense.
"Was" at the end of the sentence suggests that the sentence is speaking in past tense rather than the present.
Eliminate C.
E is correct.
There are often more prominent splits than idioms.
"Warned of" is more formal than "warned about"
