Hi varotkorn,
Option A: the growth projected by different models varies. That is, model A says 10%, model B says 20%, model C says 40%... ~The models are (quite) specific, even if they don't agree.
Option B: the growth is projected to vary widely. That is, (all) the models say that a range is involved, like 20-40%. ~The models are mostly in agreement, but they are not specific.

Technically no, though "growth for" should be "growth of" to be idiomatic English. B is primarily wrong because it changes the meaning of the sentence to something that's not intended (the sentence is trying to say that different models project different storm growth, not that the growth itself varies a lot according to the different models). There should be a clue just from the writing that B is not likely to be the right answer; in good writing, you'd never string together that many prepositional modifiers if there was any way to avoid it. Answer B is very hard to read. Answer A at least simplifies the language somewhat, so even if A and B conveyed the same meaning, A would be preferable.

The call between A and C can get tricky for few people -> Do we need appositive or not? So to check that, remove the appositive phrase (the part in between the two commas and check if it still makes sense?
(C) of these storms, projected in different computerized weather models, vary widely
...these storms vary widely.....
Now ask the question to yourself, do these storms vary OR their projected model vary widely?
Thus we can drop the choice C in this case.
