Found only in the Western Hemisphere and surviving through extremes of climate, hummingbirds’ range extends from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego, from sea-level rain forests to the edges of Andean snowfields and ice fields at altitudes of 15,000 feet.

A) Found only in the Western Hemisphere and surviving through extremes of climate, hummingbirds’ range extends

B) Found only in the Western Hemisphere, hummingbirds survive through extremes of climate, their range extending

C) Hummingbirds, found only in the Western Hemisphere and surviving through extremes of climate, with their range extending

D) Hummingbirds, found only in the Western Hemisphere and surviving through extremes of climate, their range extends

E) Hummingbirds are found only in the Western Hemisphere, survive through extremes of climate, and their range
extends

E选项中,og上说如果将survive前面的逗号换成and那么句子是可行的
楼主在网上查了其它资料，其中一个国外论坛上有人说如果将最后and后面的their range换成与found ，survive平行的动词，那么句子也是正确的。想请教牛牛们，如果这样的话，found 和survive之间不用and连接可行吗？

my personal opinion for your reference:

Although it will be grammatically correct to change "their range" to other words that parallel with "survive" and "found", the meaning of the sentence will become less logical

"and" is manily to express 1) a list with separate, independent, and equally important items 2)sequence of events

While in this question, you'd better use coma +ing modifier to express the consequential relationship between "their range extending...." and "survive through extremes of climate"

in other words, "their range extending from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego, from sea-level rain forests to the edges of Andean snowfields and ice fields at altitudes of 15,000 feet" shows how hummingbirds "survie through extremes of climate"
B is definitely the best choice

BTW, you should only use "and" to connect the last item of a list
A, B, and C
A,B,C,D, and E
