Answer 1

Answer:
A) uses correct comma placements and parallel structure.

Answer 2

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel structure or parallelism is the repetition of the same pattern of words in the same manner to emphasize the importance of all words. A particular grammatical form is chosen to compare the words.

For example,

• I like dancing, singing and reading.
• I like to dance, sing and read.

A particular grammatical form of parallelism and commas usage that's been applied in the sentence is in option A.

So, the correct option is Option A.
