Nothing wrong with A.

B - "Has" bones is plural hence "has" violates S-V agreement.
C - closely resembeled , wrong tense.
D - Modifier problem
E - modifier problem

Yup A....

B has SVA problem

Others are all convoluted forms of A, so why bother about them...

meat eating dinosaur modifies Majungatholus atopus.

Also "that is a close relative and resembles" maintains the S-V agreement.
Meat eating dinosaur is singular.

Vikram A is fine. I had misinterpreted earlier when I said D in the PM to you.

The information in the parenthetical expression (separated by commas) clearly modifies Majungatholus atopus.
