关于which指代前面一个句子的情况

小目标750

In 1974 a large area of the surface of Mercury was photographed from varying distances, which revealed a degree of cratering similar to that of the Moon's.

A. which revealed a degree of cratering similar to that of the Moon's

B. to reveal a degree of cratering similar to the Moon

C. revealing a degree of cratering similar to that of the Moon

D. and revealed cratering similar in degree to the Moon

E. that revealed cratering similar in degree to that of the Moon

答案是C.

做题的时候犹豫了一下选项A which...修饰谁？  OG的解析是：This is best done either by an appositive relative clause (requiring the relative marker which), or by a clause starting with a nonfinite verb (to reveal orrevealing).

想请问一下这里面which引导了一个同位语从句吗？  这是一种which指代了前面整个句子的情况吗？

希望大家能讨论一下，共同进步，谢谢。

OG的意思是，这里用which不对，最好是用同位语从句或者不定式

which是定语从句引导词，在GMAT里which不能指代前面一个句子，所以A不对，因为which没有修饰的对象
