Answer 1

The correct sentence is option B: Walking on the treadmill is for the old; running, the young.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct sentence is option B:

Walking on the treadmill is for the old; running, the young.

This sentence is punctuated correctly because it uses a semicolon to separate the two independent clauses ('Walking on the treadmill is for the old' and 'running, the young'). It also properly uses a comma to offset the nonessential phrase 'the young'.
