this is question 39 from OG 11, pls, help
Scientists have recently dicomvered what could be the largest and oldest living organism on Earth, a giant fungus that is an interwoven filigree of mushrooms and rootlike tentacles spawned by a single fertilized sprore some 10,000 years ago and //extending// for more than 30 acres in the soil of a Michigan forest
a,
b,extends
c,extended
d,it extended
e, is extending
I do not understand why C is wrong. OG said that " extended looks paralles to spawned, but this phrase would mean that the fungus extended only in the past when the fungus clearly lives on in the present''
I do not understand why C mean that "extended only in the past". pls, help
