Master seed lots is plural so B, D are out.
Cloing has already been completed. So C out.
Cloning results in multiplication of something and so E out.

I will go with A.

What's the OA ?

Even i will go with A.

B/D - has is wrong
C/E - triply cloned is different from cloned three times/thrice - wrong

IMO A.
Getting defeated is just a temporary notion, giving it up is what makes it permanent.

If we just leave cloned out for our discussion, "Have cloned (in C) VS Have been cloned (in A) - only difference is the doer (Ist is active while the 2nd is passive). So your point that
Cloing has already been completed. So C out.
may not be appropriate. There could be some other reason.

Could you elaborate how you think triply cloned is different from cloned three times/thrice?

triply cloned seems to be cloning once with threefold measure, whereas cloned three times/thrice seems to be repetition for 3 times.

Hi Patanjali,
Sorry, I forgot to mention the literal difference,
Thanks for pointing out my mistake.

A) Two numbers A abd B have been triply multiplied.
Implies that the numbers have been multiplied by someone.

B) Two number have multiplied thrice.
Implies that the numbers have multiplied themselves.

Here B) is wrong because numbers can't multiply themselves.

Hope this helps.

Regards
Mohit
