[Deleted because this question is from a banned source - see below.]

The correct answer is D. I get that D is correct as originating and perpetuated are both participles - originating (present particple) and perpetuated (past particple. What I am looking for is specific reasons to rule out option B, C and E.

According to me:
A - Ruled out as originate and perpetuated - both acting as verbs and are not parallel
B - originated and perpetuated both acting as verb - look parallel :roll: - I see nothing wrong
C - same as B - I see nothing wrong
D - Correct
E - same as B, E - I see nothing wrong


Thanks,
