Answer:

A. All of these

Step-by-step explanation:

Ruined reputation: People would be less likely to believe a plagiarist's works as creditable information

Being suspended/expelled: Schools often take plagiarism very seriously, to where students can be expelled

Being sued and/or facing jail time: The original creator is allowed to sue the plagiarist if work was used without consent, and/or credit. There are laws to protect these works and may be jailed if broken.

All of these would be consequences of plagiarism
