In which one of the following sentences is the semicolon used correctly? a. cheryl’s favorite snack is chocolate; she could eat it daily. b. jacob, who plays in the orchestra; has a solo in the concert. c. donald has three sisters; carla, donna, and maggie. d. whenever i feel afraid; i think of aunt margaret.

A. The reason is that a semicolon is used to separate a sentence only when the two parts could each be their own sentence. In B and D, commas would be better as the separation is not very drastic. In C the correct punctuation would be a colon as it precedes a list. Only in A is the semicolon used to separate two distinct thoughts.
