Unlike lions and tigers, whose hyoid bones vibrate loosely to create their trademark roars, the hyoid bones of domestic felines do not move and so housecats cannot roar.

A. whose hyoid bones vibrate loosely to create their trademark roars, the hyoid bones of domestic felines

B. whose hyoid bones vibrate loosely to create the cats' trademark roars, domestic felines have hyoid bones that

C. whose hyoid bones vibrate loosely to create the cats' trademark roars, the hyoid bones of domestic felines

D. who have hyoid bones that vibrate loosely to create their trademark roars, domestic felines have hyoid bones that

E. which have loosely vibrating hyoid bones that create their trademark roars, domestic felines have hyoid bones that

The correct idiomatic usage of Unlike is - unlike A, B

Moreover a possessive pronoun must be used

A = lions and tigers

B = domestic felines

Now check each answer choice carefully things will be crystal clear -


Unlike lions and tigers,_______________, domestic felines

(A) the hyoid bones of domestic felines - Lions and tigers are compared to hypoin bones ( Incorrect)

(B) domestic felines have hyoid bones that - Lions and tigers are compared to hypoin bones ( Correct)

(C) the hyoid bones of domestic felines - Same as (A)

(D) domestic felines have hyoid bones that - Correct comparison but WHO must not be used... (Incorrect)

(E) Same as (D) Which can not be used here...

Thus IMO (B)..

Lions and tigers and bears!!! Oh, my!!!!

Now wait a minute--so you're telling me that there were NO bears??? Sorry, then this question has to be thrown out pronto!!! ;)

Hi, AnjaliOberoi. Yes, "cats'" is referring to lions and tigers here. I guess you just have to know that both are members of the cat family. :) Choice B) is the only one that includes "cats'," which is more clear than simply "their."

As others have mentioned, the other issues are:

1) You have to compare like with like.
2) "Who" is not really appropriate for referring to animals.
3) "Which have" in E) isn't wrong per se, but it's less concise than "whose." I would say that E) is the second-best answer.
