The biathlon : MGMT CAT VERBAL

by divuu.verma Sun Oct 09, 2016 4:09 am

The biathlon is one of the world’s most demanding sports, it combines the endurance of cross country skiing with the precision of expert marksmanship.
sports, it combines
sports; that combines
sports; it combines
sports, where they combine
sports in which they combine

Why A is wrong? I thought the clause after comma is a noun modifier - modifying biathlon and noun modifier does not have to satisfy touch rule always

"complete sentence + comma + complete sentence" is not a legitimate construction in the english language.
