A. Same as above
SUCH .... AS you cannot have SUCH..... LIKE

B. Such orb-weaving spiders as the argiope builds webs with what is essentially a wheel -like structure
SPIDERS ... BUILD is correct
SPIDERS ....BUILDS is incorrect

C. The argiope Spider, in the same way as other orb-weaving spiders, build webs in a structure that is essentially wheel- like structure
IN THE SAME WAY AS OTHER ----should have been ----LIKE

D. Orb-Weaving spiders such as the argiope build webs that are essentially wheel-like
CORRECT

SPIDERS ... BUILD perfect
SUCH AS to state examples


E . Like other orb-weaving spiders do, the argiope builds webs as essentially wheel-like

LIKE is used only while using PHRASES, without VERB
Here, DO is a verb.
Thus, refrain from using LIKE



IMO [spoiler]D
