Answer :
The third sentence (C) is correct. Both clauses in C can stand as a sentence in their own right.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
Two clauses can be joined with a semicolon when they are both independent (they both have their subject and predicate and can stand on their own as a sentence). In option A, "In the morning" is just a phrase without no subject or verb whatsoever. In option D, the fragment after the semicolon lacks a subject, therefore it is not a clause. In option B, "Skiing is fun" and "snowboarding is better" are both independent clauses, but the semicolon cannot be combined with coordinating conjunctions like "but."
