C. it appears that paleontologists have found huge fossil bones that are from

D. paleontologists have found huge fossil bones from what appears to be

E. paleontologists have found huge fossil bones, which are from what appear to be

答案是D 没有疑问 请问D中what 从句单复数该如何判断 有没有错

In my understanding, what refers to the the second most massive dinosaur, so the verb should employ singular.

本来这道我选D，但是我看了看讨论贴还是觉得应该选E，主要是因为歧义，不知道from 是修饰bones 还是found，另外就是关于appear，我觉得既然有存在the first ＋N。可用复数的情况，那么the second是不是也应该可以，如果可以，E就显得比较完美了，请NN指点一二

感觉E大概是漏了s

我觉得选d 有这方面的考虑，仔细看，d作者想表达的是通过发现骨头进而证明了恐龙，重心在于恐龙，而e通过非限定定语从句，只是松散的解释了骨头，没有强调恐龙，所以即使s有，d也是更好一点

从dinosaur判断appears的单复数
