The webbed feet of the Alabio duck has neither nerves nor blood vessels, which renders the duck incapable of feeling the cold on its feet.
(A) has neither nerves nor blood vessels, which renders the duck incapable of feeling the cold on its feet.
Which modifies blood vessels and that is not the intended modification and this changes the meaning and for this reason it is wrong.
(B) has neither nerves nor blood vessels, which renders them incapable of feeling the cold on their feet.
The 'which' is wrong and the 'them' is also wrong because we dont know if the duck feels cold or the feet.
(C) have neither nerves nor blood vessels, rendering them incapable of feeling the cold on their feet.
the rendering is correctly modifying the clause but the 'them' again leads to wrong meaning because the duck should feel cold and not the feet.
(D) have neither nerves nor blood vessels, rendering the duck incapable of feeling the cold on its feet.
Correct modification and correct meaning. clear and crisp.
(E) have neither nerves nor blood vessels, rendering them incapable of feeling the cold on its feet.
The duck is singular noun and using them for it is wrong, we should use 'the duck' or 'it'.
