1.My first question is - Are the answers of 1000 SC foolproof.Please find the question below and let me know the answer.Then I can discuss the discrepancy in my answer as well as its answer.

8.A huge flying reptile that died out with the dinosaurs some 65 million years ago, the Quetzalcoatlus had a wingspan of 36 feet, believed to be the largest flying creature the world has ever seen.
(A) believed to be
(B) and that is believed to be
(C) and it is believed to have been
(D) which was, it is believed,
(E) which is believed to be

As per me, (C) is the best option here. Couple of reasons for that-

A) ... had a wingspan of 36 feet, believed to be the largest flying creature - incorrectly suggesting that wingspan of 36feet was the largest flying creature.

D & E) Similar reasoning as for (A)

B) ... had a wingspan of 36 feet, and that is believed to be the largest flying creature - 'that' incorrectly used instead of 'it' while talking about Quetzalcoatlus.

C) The only option left :)

Thanks for the question :)
Yes even I sometimes doubt about the document and its answers ;)

For this particular question the answer (C) doesn't quite satisfy GMAT style :lol:
If you have any other choice in your mind, put it in the post we'll discuss.
