Select the sentence showing the proper punctuation for joining independent clauses. Arturo loves to hike, he's familiar with all the local trails Arturo loves to hike; he's familiar with all the local trails. Neither sentence is correct.

It would be the second sentence, "Arturo loves to hike; he is familiar with all the trails". when you combine two independent clauses, that are related to or have to same topic as the other, you can join them together with a semi colon.
