E Correct answer
Explanation

In 'She likes the same color as I do', the word 'as' functions as a relative pronoun introducing the relative clause 'I do'. The full meaning is 'as the one I do'. In this 'same...as' construction, as represents 'the same thing that' and refers back to 'the same color'. It's not a noun, verb, adverb, or adjective.
