The functional units of all circuits underlying the nervous system are neurons, each of them has highly branched projections extending from a round hub located in the center of the neuron called the somatic bulb.
"¨(A) them has highly branched projections extending from the round hub located in the center of the neuron called the somatic bulb
"¨(B) them that have highly branched projections that extend from a round hub located in the center of the neuron, which is called the somatic bulb
"¨(C) which has highly branched projections extending from the round hub, called the somatic bulb, located in the center of the neuron
"¨(D) which having branched projections that extend from a round hub, which is called the somatic bulb, located in the center of the neuron
"¨(E) which have highly branched projections that are extending from a round hub located in the center of the neuron called the somatic bulb

What's wrong with b) ? I know that 'them' is ambiguous.

Hi,

Whats wrong with Option A? Is 'them' ambiguous here? 'them' should refer to neurons (or functional units - which are inturn neurons only).

In option B, we should use "has" instead of "have".

Please advice.
