This is a great question!
Confused between B and D.
IMO D

Thanks!

IMO C
The correct form is - More likely to do X than Y

GmatKiss,
I think that an "is" with a connecting word (such as and) will make option A correct.

Whats the OA?
Thanks!

Hi, IMO C If we omit the modifier, "A huge flying reptile .....years ago" and look at the rest of the sentence, the Quetzalcoatlus had a wingspan of 36 feet, and it is believed to have been the largest flying creature the world has ever seen. This construction looks better than the rest. D...

Nice question!
IMO C although I am not sure whether the word "that" would be better than the word "as"?
Thanks!

Hello Vivian,
B seems to be right since it is in the "Active" voice.
