You are right. List is a collective noun and hence is singular and the noun goes well with its singular main verb- has been expanding. So far so good.
The prepositional object animals represented by the relative pronoun that, stands for the plural object animals and hence you should use the plural verb exhibit. Exhibit is the not the verb for the main subject list. This is the reason B is wrong.
Now you can drop A and B which use the singular verb exhibits.
Among C, D, and E, now we have to fish out for the second error of wrongful parallelism of the correlative conjunction, either -- or
In -either /or - correlative conjunction, the same structure that appears after either should appear after or also.
Only D is maintaining the correct form of parallelism as per grammar norms --either the right or the left hand

that refers to animals (not list) so has to be followed by a plural noun exhibit .
list is singular so should take singular noun has
"preference for" is idiomatic.
"prefer to" - e.g. prefer X to Y - is also idiomatic
"preference to" is not idiomatic
