In the sentence, "My pencil was broken so I borrowed one from Bushra," the word "so" functions as a coordinating conjunction. It connects two independent clauses ("My pencil was broken" and "I borrowed one from Bushra") that are of equal importance in expressing the cause-and-effect relationship between them. Therefore, the correct option is (C) Coordinating conjunction.
