The stem drills down to B & C.

C specifies that organisms will grow organs to adapt. The premise talks about organisms living in a particular topology having similar organs. This has been clearly highlighted in B.

@Experts: How relevant are LSAT CRs for GMAT?

Hi buddy! mgcon

Answering to your question about how relevant LSAT CRs are for the GMAT.

After consultation with a few professors, they told me that LSAT CRs can be slightly complex at times or the language might matter.
But IMO, as long as it helps you to grow and understand the right essence of understanding the question. That's all that matters!

I hope this suffices your understanding.

Thank you!

Regards,

Often a type of organ or body structure is the only physically feasible means of accomplishing a given task, so it should be unsurprising if, like eyes or wings, that type of organ or body structure evolves at different times in a number of completely unrelated species. After all, whatever the difference of heritage and habitat, as organisms animals have fundamentally similar needs and so _______.

Which one of the following most logically completes the last sentence of the passage?

(A) will often live in the same environment as other species quite different from themselves
(B) will in many instances evolve similar adaptations enabling them to satisfy these needs
(C) will develop adaptations allowing them to satisfy these needs
(D) will resemble other species having different biological needs
(E) will all develop eyes or wings as adaptations

Source: LSAT
I was stuck between B and C like anyone.
The difference between them is not much had someone read them independently. Two I can notice are 'similar adaptations' and 'develop adaptations' and 'enabling' and 'allowing'. I chose C without giving much heed to SC aspect.
I might be picking up nitty gritty but that's it. So, here i can only think of, using SC skills, 'enabling' as more suitable than 'allowing'. And similarly 'adaptations' can't be 'developed' rather 'evolved'. However, in the thick of moment one can't be so specific - may be that is what is required.
