Download Solution PDFChoice C is the best answer. The convention being tested is punctuation between a subordinate clause and a main clause. This choice correctly uses a comma to mark the boundary between the subordinate clause ('While…lifelike') and the main clause ('others look to the past'). Choice A is incorrect because it results in an incomplete sentence with no main clause. Choice B is incorrect because it fails to mark the boundary between the subordinate clause ('While…lifelike') and the main clause ('others…past'). Choice D is incorrect because it results in an incomplete sentence with no main clause.
