The correct answer is B. The wind whipped the branches into a frenzy until it looked like the tree was doing a crazy dance.Explanation: A subordinating conjunction is a word mainly use to link dependent clause, which is an incomplete idea that requires another sentence to exist, to an independent clause which expresses a complete idea; subordinating conjunction include words as before, therefore, while, even if, so that and until.

B. The wind whipped the branches into a frenzy until it looked like the tree was doing a crazy dance.A subordinate conjunction provides a transition between a dependent clause and an independent clause. Options C and D are not correct because they do not have a subordinate conjunction. The sentences combined are both independent clauses. They don't rely on each other to be a complete thought. Option A is also wrong. Subordinate conjunctions should not be surrounded by commas. If a comma is necessary, it should be before the subordinate conjunction or after the dependent clause. Option B is the only one that uses a subordinate conjunction (until) correctly.... Show More
