Dear Friends,

I was having problems in answering the following question.

Like the thorny ballooning of a frightened pufferfish or the sudden appearance of angry sapphire hoops for which the blue-ringed octopus is named, so the California newt's display of its red underbelly is a clear warning that predators ignore at their peril.

(A) so the California newt's display of its red underbelly is a clear warning that predators ignore at their peril
(B) so it is at their peril that predators ignore the California newt's display of its red underbelly, a clear warning
(C) the California newt's displaying its red underbelly is a clear warning for predators, so they ignore it at their peril
(D) the California newt's display of its red underbelly is a clear warning that predators ignore at their peril
(E) it is at their peril that predators ignore the California newt's display of its red underbelly, a clear warning


Please help.

OA after some discussions.

Regards
Deano.

IMO D.

Like X, Y usage. Here X and Y plays the part of noun phrases.
Getting defeated is just a temporary notion, giving it up is what makes it permanent.

IMO C
the reasoning:
in D, "a clear warning that predators ignore at their peril" means that predators ignore a clear warning for their own safety, not newt.
and in C on contrary, predators is ignoring it(newt) not the warning.
I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of a man to elevate his life by conscious endeavor.
