Simply because they are genetically engineered does not make it any more likely for plants to become an invasive or persistent weed, according to a decade-long study published in the journal Nature.

(A) because they are genetically engineered does not make it any more likely for plants to
(B) because it is genetically engineered does not make a plant any more likely to
(C) being genetically engineered does not make it any more likely that plants will
(D) being genetically engineered does not make a plant any more likely to
(E) being genetically engineered does not make a plant any more likely that it will become

D. I agree.

但B错在哪里呢?it指代? simply because从句做主语可以吗? 这里是否一定要用分词做主语?
谢谢

此句doesnot 是谓语,需要个主语.A.B显然排除.because引导句子,怎么能做主语呢?

CDE中,any more likely应该修饰v,所以我觉得该选D来修饰to do.C中成了it的补语,好象不能这么用吧.

1)because从句不可以做主语,主语不可以是句子

2)being genetically engineered表示被动,受动者是a plant
