I will go with E because:
The question stem uses idiom Between A and B with C. The correct idiom, here, would be "between A and B and C" (guess it should be among A, B and C but since "between" is not underlined its supposed to be correct).
B. Incorrect. Same error as underlined portion of question sentence(betweek A and B with C)
C. "which has produced" is wrong here. remember the rule (see SC tips sticky post in this forum):
this, which, that, and other pronouns MUST replace nouns, not sentences.
D. same as C
E. Corrects idiom without introducing new error.
