A. Bloodhounds possess an impressive tracking ability, which exceeds that of other scenting hounds, while coonhounds, Swiss Jura hounds, and Bavarian Mountain hounds, as well as several breeds of foxhounds, which are able to ----1. 'That of' is wrong. It should be those of. 2. The subordinate clause starting with ‘while’ has no verb of its own. --- wrong
B. Bloodhounds possess an impressive tracking ability, which, while exceeding that of other scenting hounds, coonhounds, Swiss Jura hounds, and Bavarian Mountain hounds, as well as several breeds of foxhounds---1 that of is wrong. 2. Tracking ability is the subject, but perform is the verb--- SV number error.
C. Even as bloodhounds possess an impressive tracking ability that have exceeded that of other scenting hounds, still coonhounds, Swiss Jura hounds, and Bavarian Mountain hounds, as well as several breeds of foxhounds ---' tracking ability that have exceeded that of' is SV number error. --- wrong
D. Unlike the impressive tracking ability of bloodhounds, which exceeds that of other scenting hounds, coonhounds, Swiss Jura hounds, and Bavarian Mountain hounds, as well as several breeds of foxhounds, which are able to ---- 1. ‘That of’ should be ‘those of’ 2. The whole sentence lacks a main verb and hence is a fragment.

The demonstrative pronoun that or this can refer to only singular things. If you want to refer to plural things you must use 'those' or 'these'.
Since all the choices display this error, one can't decide the correct choice.

Meaning: Blood hounds have impressive tracking ability. the tracking ability of bloodhounds exceed the tracking ability of other hounds, but other hounds perform other tasks that are asked of blood hounds.
A. It is a run on sentence, main verb is missing. Moreover the which modifier does not state the comparison effectively. Furthermore the sentence speaks of the contrasting abilities of two subsets of hounds, while is used for simultaneous action, not for contrast. Incorrect.
B. Again a very confusing sentence. It seems tracking ability exceeds other breeds of hounds. Moreover it has subject verb error. Incorrect
C. Subject verb error. Tracking ability does not agree with plural have. Incorrect.
D. Comparison error. Scenting ability is compared to other hounds. Incorrect.
E. Correct. Notice how tracking ability of bloodhounds has been compared to tracking ability of other hounds using that. All subjects and verbs agree with each other. The contrast is properly shown using although. This is by far the best choice. Correct.
E is correct.
