There is another issue in D, which does not seem to have been highlighted so far. It says:
once the hydrogen in the Sun’s core is exhausted
This does not tell us who exhausts the hydrogen in the Sun’s core. The original sentence says: once the Sun has exhausted the hydrogen in its store.
So, this is a big meaning issue with D.
once the hydrogen in the Sun’s core is exhausted
This does not tell us who exhausts the hydrogen in the Sun’s core. The original sentence says: once the Sun has exhausted the hydrogen in its store.
