Answer:

Your answer would be C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sentence C contains a compound subject. A compound subject is a subject made up of two or more simple subjects that are joined by a coordinating conjunction (and, or) and the share the same predicate. In the sentence above, the subject is the coordinating NP "the economy or the weather". This NP has the same VP predicate "can make a small town fall apart".
