THE CORRECT IDIOM IS EITHER X OR Y.
BOTH X AND Y SHOULD BE PARALLEL.FOR "d" the choice is that it uses the idiom "either..., or..." correctly verus C. C does not have the word "using" repeat itself for parallelism.
TO BE CORRECT "C" WUD HAV " USING" after OR PART.
thats why the OA is "D"

I agree that usage of Either/or is not correct in 1st sentence but I have a small doubt that why there should be "The list of animals that exhibit" in place of " The list of animals that exhibits".

I am confused :(

Think of "preference in" as being "preference within". You would say "the preference in the tenth grade is to take Algebra", but "tenth graders have a preference for algebra".
