Answer:

C - Mrs. Jones assigned a biography on a nineteenth-century poet, and Josh selected Edgar Allan Poe.

Explanation:Although periods and events are capitalized, centuries are not. In the correct answer choice, nineteenth century is not capitalized. Genres of literature, such as biography, should also not be capitalized.
