Answer: The answer would be A

Step-by-step explanation:

The other ones are just stating the obvious and stating facts while A seems to run on.

Thus option (A) (Some tortoises are huge, you can ride on them.) Is the run on sentence therefore, it is the correct answer.

it would be A because it just, well, runs on. b states a fact. c is also a fact. d is also a fact. A IS a fact, but it does not have an and or even.

i hope that helped (and made since) ;)
