The answer is option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Emily breaks out in hives wherever she eats strawberries" is the sentence containing a subordinate clause introduced by the subordinating conjunction "wherever".

In this case, the subordinating conjunction "wherever" is signaling a relationship of cause-effect between the two statements.
