1. It seems likely that a number of astronomical phenomena, such as the formation of planetary nebulas, may be caused by the interaction where two stars orbit each other at close range.

(A) may be caused by the interaction where two stars orbit each other

(B) may be caused by the interaction between two stars that each orbit the other

© are because of the interaction between two stars that orbit each other

(D) are caused by the interaction of two stars where each is orbiting the other

(E) are caused by the interaction of two stars orbiting each other

my pick is E.

 

1) idiom : the interaction of X and Y or the interaction of two nouns(two stars)

2) seems is parallel to are

3) orbiting each other rather than the other.

4) Please also note that seems likely also include the meaning of possibility, so may be is redundant.

 

Thanks ankit0uc.

are is not because of seems; it is a linking verb for "a number"
