D) It strengthens the connection between the two lines

Mollie Sherman · Answer 2

An enjambment is just the lack of punctuation or anything at the end of a line of a poem that would create a pause. It connects two or more lines of poetry together and changes the way yo read it slightly.

Knowing that, it can't be a or c. So between b and d, d is the better answer based on what an enjambment is.
