Such orb-weaving spiders like the argiope build webs in an essentially wheel-like structure, with an outer rim and a number of spokes emanating from the hub. (A) Such orb-weaving spiders like the argiope build webs in an essentially wheel-like structure (B) Such orb-weaving spiders as the argiope builds webs with what is essentially a wheel-like structure (C) The argiope spider, in the same way as other orb-weaving spiders, build webs in a structure that is essentially wheel-like (D) Orb-weaving spiders such as the argiope build webs that are essentially wheel-like (E) Like other orb-weaving spiders do, the argiope builds webs as essentially wheel-like

The correct option is D

Explanation:

Option A is wrong because it makes use of the word "like" when providing an example instead of the word "as".

Option B is wrong because of the wrong use of "with" in the sentence.

Option C corrects the "like" with the "as", however you cannot say "build webs", hence there is a subject verb agreement. You use "builds webs" instead.

Option E is also wrong because of the use of "as" after the webs. This is totally wrong.

The only option with no error is option D.
