Since numbers do not have physical manifestations other than the symbols that represent them and there is little probability of infants spontaneously forming numerical concepts without any perceptual input, the development of number concepts must begin with the acquisition of symbols followed by the configuration of their conceptual contents

A. "there is little probability of..." is awkward and unnecessarily wordy
B. since X, and it is Y,... with the acquiring... choppy, wordy and ungrammatical
C. same as B; in fact, (C) has a horrible construction
D. although uses the preferred structure of "since X and since Y,..." it needlessly distorts original meaning with a lot of wordiness: "since there is little chance that infants..." is wordy and less precise when compared to "since it is improbable that infants..."
E. the best response, uses more precise and concise language.
Just my 2 cents; others will be appreciated.

IMO : E
Between D and E. I would say "since" parallelism.
"there" is passive that eliminates D.
