OA D, Why not A
IMO D
A - "so that" is wrongly used because the sentence tries to explain the kind of curosity.
B & C - "will exhibit" is wrong
E - "curiosity where" is wrong. where is used to specify places.

@ayushiiitm

Where did you get the question from? To me all the choices look wrong. D does look right but the from each one to others did not look correct to me.

I think this is the right version of the question:

In her 26 years in the forests of Gombe, Jane Goodall collected data that proved that chimpanzees exhibit the kind of curiosity so that new patterns of behavior and expression can be passed on from each one to others by imitating and practicing

A. exhibit the kind of curiosity so that new patterns of behavior and expression can be passed on from each one to others by imitating and practicing
B. will exhibit the kind of curiosity so that new patterns of behavior and expression can be passed on from one to another by imitating and practicing
C. will exhibit the kind of curiosity so that new patterns of behavior and expression can be passed on from one to another by imitation and practice
D. exhibit the kind of curiosity by which new patterns of behavior and expression can be passed on from one to another by imitation and practice
E. exhibit the kind of curiosity where new patterns of behavior and expression are passed on to others by imitation and practice

BTW the answer is D
