Seeming means appearing to be.
Hence, "seeming" suits to modify the word unlimited; Therefore, the usage of seemingly makes sense.
I would request a professional to validate
Seeming is an adjective. Seemingly is an adverb.
An adverb can modify an adjective but an adjective can not modify an another adjective.
"unlimited" is an adjective, so what precedes it should be an adverb, not an adjective. Therefore, you can eliminate answer choices (A), (B), and (C) for using "seeming (adjective)" before an another adjective "unlimited". "unlimited" here modifies its noun "supply of water".
Between (D) and
(E), "supply of water" and "absence of government regulations" are two entities, thus they would take the plural verb "make" not "makes", so choice (D) can be eliminated on those ground.
Also, the meaning shift in (D) is wrong. "absent government" in (D) implies that there is no government. But instead, it is the absence of the government
regulations.
Thus,
(E) is our best choice here.
