IMO: D
' ,whose' refer to the noun befor it ==> the options have ',whose' refer to the branches which are not correct ==> eliminate A,B,E
as for 'verb tense agreement' we have 'have looked up and have seen' eliminate C as well(eliminate A,B,C which uses 'saw' instead of 'seen'.. but we already eliminated A,B)
the only correct choice is D used ',with' as a modifier correctly since this modifies the entire clause

I would go with C. Meharsa, could you please explain the reason to remove C? I did not understand subject-Verb agreement logic here.
Thanks in Advance.
