attribute X to Y - thats the correct idiom

So C and D are wrong

A) the second clause " they tend to......" is an independant clause and does not fir itself to explain the 'tendency'
B) idiom is used correct. second clause 'attributing ......" modifies the tendency as required. Correct

E) the second clause does not modify the 'tendency'

hence ans B.
