The sentence that contains a subordinating conjuction is: Although he was embarrassed, Jack called his mother.

The subordinate conjunction has two functions. First, it provides a necessary transition between the two ideas in the sentence. This transition will show a time, place, or cause and effect relationship. Its second function is to reduce the importance of one clause so that a reader understands which of the two ideas is more important.

Subordinating conjunction is a conjunction that introduces a subordinate clause, e.g., although, because.

The correct answer between all the choices given is the second choice or letter B. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
