Final answer:

One of the sentences in the given options is punctuated incorrectly.


Explanation:

The sentence punctuated incorrectly is:

  1. Caroline cut the grass; and it took a long time.

In this sentence, the use of the coordinating conjunction 'and' after the semicolon is incorrect. Semicolons are typically followed by a closely related independent clause, which is not the case here.
