The peaks of a mountain range, acting like rocks in a streambed, produce ripples
in the air flowing over them: the resulting flow pattern, with crests and troughs
that remain stationary although the air that forms them is moving rapidly, are
known as "standing waves."

I prefer C is because that remain stationary is parallel with is moving rapidly

Also, E slightly changes the intended meaning.

(A) crests and troughs that remain stationary
although the air that forms them is moving
rapidly, are
(B) crests and troughs that remain stationary
although they are formed by rapidly moving
air, are
(C) crests and troughs that remain stationary
although the air that forms them is moving
rapidly, is
(D) stationary crests and troughs although the air
that forms them is moving rapidly, are
(E) stationary crests and troughs although they are
formed by rapidly moving air, is
In A, B and D, are (plural) does not agree with its subject pattern (singular). Eliminate A, B and D.

In E, a contrast is made between stationary (adjective) and are formed (verb). An adjective cannot be compared to a verb. Eliminate E.

The correct answer is C.

In C, the comparison is parallel: a contrast is made between remain (verb) and is moving (verb).
