one of the students - is plural and require demand.
cooperate together is redundant.
demand + that needs verb word (subjunctive rule.)

considering all these. C is the only correct choice.

C and E are not correct because there is no subject/verb agreement between "each person" and "cooperate". Now one has to decide what "who" refers. IMO "Who" can modify either "Martin" or "those students": I would choose D instead of A or B because D is more concise are less wordy.

D is wrong because subjunctive rule says that demad + that+ verb word

so after demand that each person cooperate ( verb word not coperates) should be used.

C. the subject "who" refers to students, which is is plural. so needs plural verb "demand". this rules out B/D/E.

Between A and C, C is better because it eliminates the redundancy problem. now C remains..

OA is C. Indeed this was the same question which I posted before but I made the correction to C in the original post.
