Why other options are incorrect?

Recently documented examples of neurogenesis, the production of new brain cells, include the brain growing in mice when placed in a stimulating environment or neurons increasing in canaries that learn new songs.

Hi Siddhant,

A. the brain growing in mice when placed in a stimulating environment or neurons increasing in canaries that – what was placed in a stimulating environment? The brain or the mice?
B.  mice whose brains grow when they are placed in a stimulating environment or canaries whose neurons increase when they – The examples don’t include mice and canaries. The examples are for neurogenesis which would be growth of brain/increase of neurons
C. mice’s brains that grow when they are placed in a stimulating environment or canaries’ neurons that increase when they – The examples don’t include brains or neurons. Same explanation as in B.
D. the brain growth in mice when placed in a stimulating environment or the increase in canaries’ neurons when they – brain growth in mice and canaries’ neurons aren’t parallel.
E. brain growth in mice that are placed in a stimulating environment or an increase in neurons in canaries that – Correct answer. The examples or neurogeneris are growth of brain/increase of neurons. Brain growth in mice is parallel to increase in neurons in canaries
