The correct option is D

The ideas and paragraphs of any writing must be connected to each other so that the text is perceived as something unified and coherent. To achieve this, we have a very useful tool called "connectors", "markers" or "link elements", which are the words that serve to mark the relationship between the paragraphs, phrases and ideas of a text. This is a clear example of what can be observed in the lines presented.
