A. Five hundred million different species of living creatures have appeared on Earth, nearly 99 percent of them vanishing.

B. Nearly 99 percent of five hundred million different species of living creatures that appeared on Earth have vanished.

C. Vanished are nearly 99 percent of the five hundred million different species of living creatures that appeared on Earth.

D. Of five hundred million different species of living creatures that have appeared on Earth, nearly 99 percent of them have vanished.

E. Of the five hundred million different species of living creatures that have appeared on Earth, nearly 99 percent have vanished.
A: Different species have appeared, nearly 99 percent of them vanishing.
Here, the modifier in red implies that nearly 99 percent of the different species were VANISHING when they APPEARED -- a nonsensical meaning.
Eliminate A.

In B and C, appeared (past) implies that the species were NO LONGER ON EARTH when they vanished -- a nonsensical meaning.
Eliminate B and C.

In D, of five hundred different million species and of them are redundant.
Eliminate D.

The correct answer is E.
