    In revision A, if you read the sentence out loud you will see that it doesn't flow very well.

    In revision B, the semicolon is used incorrectly. Semicolons are used to connect two independent clauses. The second sentence (the one after the semicolon) is actually a dependent clause since it's a sentence that can't stand on its own.

    In revision D, the sentence is a fragment.

    The correct revision is answer choice C.
