however your other reason to eliminate A (re more than one interpretations) should be suffice to eliminate A.
In A, the meaning conveyed by
not normally found cannot be deemed logical because the meaning conveyed by this modifier is UNCLEAR.
As discussed above, a reader cannot be certain whether this modifier is intended to modify
tissues or
tooth and bone.
It is contradictory to deem the conveyed meaning both unclear and logical.
Moreover -- as suggested in my original post -- the usage of
because in A conveys a nonsensical meaning.
Option A implies the following:
The composition of teratomas CAUSES them to be unusual.
This meaning makes no sense.
The composition does not FORCE teratomas to be unusual.
Rather, the composition is an ASPECT of teratomas that IS unusual.
For both these reasons, eliminate A.
