    (B) Found only in the Western Hemisphere, hummingbirds survive through extremes of climate, their range extending

    Explanation:

    The correct answer (B) contains both a main subject and a main verb (hummingbirds survive) and the opening phrase properly introduces hummingbirds.

    The final modifier - "their range extending" - may sound strange. This construction is correct, though likely to be used only in a more formal writing.
