I have a sentence like that:

- .... the only known planet with an inhabitable environment, it is home to an abundance of flora and fauna
A) Being that the Earth is
B) The Earth being
C) Being the Earth
d) The Earth is

I think the answer is A. But it seems the right is B.
How do you think?

What I feel is ...

the correct scentence should be

either

The Earth being the only known planet with an inhabitable environment, it is home to an abundance of flora and fauna

or

The Earth is the only known planet with an inhabitable environment. It is home to an abundance of flora and fauna

<table style="background-color:silver;color:Black;font-face:arial;font-size:10px;border-left:1px solid white;border-top:1px solid white;border-bottom:1px solid black;border-right:1px solid black;"><tr><td>*Raghuveer *</td></tr></table>
