(A) on account of prohibiting
(B) on account of their prohibiting
(C) because prohibitions on
(D) because of prohibiting
(E) because they prohibit
(A) on account of prohibiting
(B) on account of their prohibiting
(C) because prohibitions on
(D) because of prohibiting
(E) because they prohibit
Correct Idiomatic usage is Prohibit/Prohibiting X from Verb+ing
None except (C) follows the rule...
The North American bald eagle is no longer threatened with imminent extinction, primarily because prohibitions on hunting and the ban of a poisonous pesticide have led to a rebound in the eagle population.
Further the sentence maintains //ism-
Prohobition of X AND Ban on Y
Hence IMHO (C) is the best answer

A) on account of prohibiting ---- the modifier consists of a phrase and a clause – Unparallel
(B) on account of their prohibiting --- ‘Their’ has no referent’ , in addition to the modifier being unparallel as in A
(C) because prohibitions on --- correct choice. The complex sentence is properly constructed with a main and a subordinate clause
(D) because of prohibiting ---unparallel subordinate clause.
(E) because they prohibit -- ‘they’ has no referent
(B) on account of their prohibiting --- ‘Their’ has no referent’ , in addition to the modifier being unparallel as in A
(C) because prohibitions on --- correct choice. The complex sentence is properly constructed with a main and a subordinate clause
