解析：答案是B。
（1）devote译为“致力于，献身于”，主要用devote…to… 或be devoted to，其中的to是介词，不是不定式符号，故后接动词时要用动名词，不用不定式。
（2）选A错误：若将do改为doing则可以。
（3）选B正确：all her time devoted to doing experiments 为独立主格结构，用作状语。
（4）选C错误：因为all her time与devote为被动关系，故应将devoting改为devoted.
（5）选D错误：若单独看All her time is devoted to doing experiments,此句并没有错，但问题是逗号前后两个简单句没有必要的连接方式，所以从整体上看仍不对，假若在后一句的句首加上and或so，则可以选D，或将D中的is改为being也可以选。
