In Option D & E does "it" refers to "Alaskan brown bear"?

If so then why option D & E are wrong

D and E are wrong because you cannot join two clause without a connector.

In the correct one A, both "weighing" and "measuring" are present participle modifier, modifying the subject "Alaskan brown bear".

From: GMAT PREP
Option E:
It is largest of all land carnivores, weighs up to 1500 pounds and measures - This is one complete sentence
the Alaskan brown bear is a close relative of grizzly bear. - This is another complete sentence.

You cannot add these two with a comma.

Same is the case with option D
