Answer:

B) Sheree's grandmother—a country woman through and through—knew how to bake a serious pie.

Step-by-step explanation:

A dash (-) is often used to clearly define an independent clause. The dash is used to separate two words that have been connected together, as in peach and blue. Where there should be no pause between the sentences.
