Respuesta :

Correct option is E. Selected as an astronaut by NASA in 1990 Dr. Ellen Ochoa had spent over 719 hours in space on three flights by 2001

Here, the given sentence has a case of a dangling modifier: the portion after the comma must begin with the noun phrase that "Selected as an astronaut..." describes which is definitely not "over 719 hours". Only E rectifies this without adding any further errors.
