A study suggests that seeing and smelling food after a period of fasting triggers POMC neurons, the protein units that influence the function of the heart, suppressing the appetite for a sustainable amount of time, making them feel satiated.
A. triggers POMC neurons, the protein units that influence the function of the heart, suppressing the appetite for a sustainable amount of time, making them

It is necessary to know that POMC neurons are both the protein units that influence the function of the heart and suppress the appetite.
"Seeing and smelling food after a period of fasting" doesn't really suppress the appetite for a sustainable amount of time; instead, it should be the contrary.
Therefore we can conclude answer E is grammatically correct and logical.
A. triggers POMC neurons, the protein units that influence the function of the heart, suppressing the appetite for a sustainable amount of time, making them
This answer implies POMC neurons suppress the appetite. See above explanation
missing "and" before "making", and it is unclear who "them" is referring to.
B. trigger POMC neurons, the protein units that influence the heart function and suppress the appetite for a sustainable amount of time to make them
missing "and" before "making", and it is unclear who "them" is referring to.
C. triggers POMC neurons, the units of protein influencing the function of the heart, suppress the appetite for a sustainable amount of time, and make them
This answer implies POMC neurons suppress the appetite. See above explanation
missing "and" before "making", and it is unclear who "them" is referring to.
D. trigger POMC neurons, the units of protein influencing the heart function, and suppress the appetite for a sustainable amount of time to make humans
This answer implies the "seeing and smelling food after a period of fasting" does : (1) trigger (verb) POMC neuron, (2) the units of protein? (a noun), suppress the appetite.. (verb). It is both not parallel and illogical.
E. trigger POMC neurons, the protein units that influence the function of the heart and for a sustainable amount of time suppress the appetite, making humans.
Correct answer. This addressed the above issues.

A study suggests that seeing and smelling food after a period of fasting triggers POMC neurons, the protein units that influence the function of the heart, suppressing the appetite for a sustainable amount of time, making them feel satiated.
Note :- 'seeing and smelling food...' are two different nouns (or, compound plural form)...so, plural verb is the correct option
A. triggers POMC neurons, the protein units that influence the function of the heart, suppressing the appetite for a sustainable amount of time, making them
S-V agreement error (as explained above)
B. trigger POMC neurons, the protein units that influence the heart function and suppress the appetite for a sustainable amount of time to make them
modifier ambiguity..it's not the POMC neurons that suppress the appetite..here, suppressing the appetite bears a cause-effect relationship to triggering of POMC neurons
C. triggers POMC neurons, the units of protein influencing the function of the heart, suppress the appetite for a sustainable amount of time, and make them
S-V agreement error (as explained above)
D. trigger POMC neurons, the units of protein influencing the heart function, and suppress the appetite for a sustainable amount of time to make humans
'units of protein' needs to be replaced by 'protein units' to lead to a concise version..'to make humans' needs to be repaced by comma + ing version to show cause-effect reationship
E. trigger POMC neurons, the protein units that influence the function of the heart and for a sustainable amount of time suppress the appetite, making humans
concise version through use of 'protein units'; also, correct use of comma + ing version to show cause-effect reationship
(E) is the correct answer
