Answer:

D) Runs with scissors

Step-by-step explanation:

Sentence fragments are dependent clauses, or sometimes phrases, which either include a verb and a subject, a verb, a subject, or neither. In this case, all other options are independent clauses, which are FULLY CAPABLE of standing as a sentence by themselves, but the last option 'Runs with scissors' cannot. 'Runs with scissors' has a verb, but no subject, making it a phrase. Phrases can NEVER convey complete thoughts. They are sentence fragments.
