i think C can be interpreted as : centipedes lived on land areas (mud flats) which were sometimes covered by water and hence fossils or water dwelling animals were also found. It strengthens the argument. D fails to talk about centipedes at all. It has to be the one which is least supportive. It's n...

The OA is D.
But I think E is more suitable.

Thanks for the pointer.
Apparently i tried the expanded way by considering all possibilities:
3Y,1B
2Y2B
1Y3B
4B

but failed to take into consideration the different arrangement possible in 2Y2B and 1Y3B.
