Answer A is correct becuase of correct idiom
Idiom
was due to X than due to Y

The only thing I dont like is that due MORE ..... than to
I will place "More" before "due"

B lacks comparative word MORE

I think it should be B

Due to the fear is correct usage and if Due to is replaced by caused by makes correct sense

Additonal inputs

More X than Y ; X and Y grammticaly and logically parallel fits here

Only A meets this criteria here

( I would prefer to use idiomatic structures used in OG )
