求教OG 13上的第102题到底是个神马句式啊？！

fkendia

实在搞不懂这句话到底是神马从句，算同位语从句么？请各路大神指点迷津！
Yellow jackets number among the 900 or so species of the world's social wasps, wasps that live in a highly cooperative and organized society consisting almost entirely of females--the queen and her sterile female workers.

您好，如果说consisting是修饰society的话，是不是应该在consisting前面加一个“，”呢？ ...

不需要，consisting在这里相当于是形容词。之所以不放在被修饰名词的前面是因为前面已经有形容词highly cooperative and organized 了。
而且，GMAT中不会专门考“逗号”的用法。但如果出现了逗号，两句话之间又没有连词，那就有问题了。

同问，C 选项，从语法上讲，似乎是对的啊。

求达人解释一下·C 为什么错误

同一题：

Yellow jackets number among the 900 or so species of the world’s social wasps, wasps living in a highly cooperative and organized society where they consist almost entirely of females—the queen and her sterile female workers.


A. wasps living in a highly cooperative and organized society where they consist almost entirely of
B. wasps that live in a highly cooperative and organized society consisting almost entirely of
C. which means they live in a highly cooperative and organized society, almost all
D. which means that their society is highly cooperative, organized, and it is almost entirely
E. living in a society that is highly cooperative, organized, and it consists of almost all


在OG的官方解释中，说C选项错是因为： The sentence structure makes it unclear what "almost all females" describes.
我疑惑的是，为什么官方解释不说which的用法也是错误的呢？难道官方是默许which的这种用法吗？
求大神指点！！！

Yellow jackets number among the 900 or so species of the world's social wasps, wasps that live in a highly cooperative and organized society consisting almost entirely of females--the queen and her sterile female workers.
我觉得可以分为三个部分来理解这句话：
1.Yellow jackets number among the 900 or so soecies of the world's social wasps.
  number作为谓语
2.wasps that live in a highly cooperative and organized societyconsisting almost entirely of females.
  live 作为谓语，cooperative and organized作为形容词短语修饰society。consisting现在分词作为形容词来修饰society。实际上, cooperative, organized, and consisting三者都是形容词用来修饰society.
3.the queen and her sterile female workers.
  名词短语用来解释前面的females
