OG-163 explanation

163. Found throughout Central and South America, sloths hang from trees by long rubbery limbs and sleep fifteen hours a day. moving infrequently enough that two species of algae grow on its coat and between its toes.
(A)    sloths hang from trees by long rubbery limbs and sleep fifteen hours a day, moving infrequently enough
(B)    sloths hang from trees by long rubbery limbs, they sleep fifteen hours a day, and with such infrequent movements
(C)    sloths use their long rubbery limbs to hang from trees, sleep fifteen hours a day, and move so infrequently
(D)    the sloth hangs from trees by its long rubbery limbs, sleeping fifteen hours a day and moving so infrequently
(E)    the sloth hangs from trees by its long rubbery limbs, sleeps fifteen hours a day, and it moves infrequently enough

D, the best choice, correctly subordinates sleeping and moving to hangs .... Choice A illogically coordinates hang and sleep ....

I thought sleeping and moving are subordinated to "the sloth".
Also, how is "hang and sleep" illogical ?

其实ETS就是要我们弄清楚该句的逻辑意思,hangs from trees by its long rubbery limbs是主句要表达的意思,而sleeping fifteen hours a day and moving so infrequently都是伴随动作,或者说都是基于主句的动作hangs from trees by its long rubbery limbs而来的.
从逻辑意思的角度来看,就不应该把hang 和sleep并列.
