imo E
(A) it is unlikely that its effect on their size is significant
it is unlikely that is wordy and unlikely that is not the correct idiom
(B) it is unlikely that the size of their effect would be significant
same as A
(C) affecting their sizes are not likely to be significant
the subject of the previous clause is coordination which is singular and affecting modifies coordination so their is incorrect S/V issue
(D) the significance of their effect on its size is unlikely
coordination effect on imbalances which should be its effect on their size
inverted S/V
(E) its effect on their size is not likely to be significant
correct
its refer to coordination and their to imbalances
