IMO B

I would have gone for C if "differently" had not been there.

B

i would have chosen C if differently had not been there. although the "which" in B sounds awkward, it seems to be the best of the given choices.

There may be a possibility that "differently" is by mistake posted by original poster.
Becoz "differently" doesn't make any sense here.Also it's not used in any other option, so why in this option only

opening this thread again:
I don't understand this question..should'nt we use "who" for animals???
WE know that plural verb has to be used which puts B and C on the map,in C "Differrently" does'nt make any sense..but how is the OA correct when it uses "which"?

2 doubts-
which is used for non-living things
which is used for singular nouns

Am I wrong?
