Meteor showers and individual streaks of light that flash across the sky every night are generated when tiny flecks of celestial detritus, often no larger than ((grains of sand or of pebbles, burn up speeding)) through the atmosphere.
A. grains of sand or of pebbles, burn up speeding
B. grains of sand or pebbles, burn up while speeding
C. grains of sand or pebbles, which burn up while speeding
D. a grain of sand or pebble, which burns up as it speeds
E. a grain of sand or a pebble, burns up when it speeds
OA is B, through all the parallemisn issue and C is wrong "which" lacks subject instead modifying flecks of celestial detritus.
I have a question that why B" while" is correct? Should we use while when we compare two nouns???

While refers to the period when the celestial detritus speeds through the atmosphere.
