Answer 1

can you exclude any options?

Answer 2

i think a?

Answer 3

yes sounds like it. It is a subordinate clause that modifies the word plants.

B is an intersection on 2 clauses, and it is nonsense to even be a subordinate clause....

C "and we took a family vacation" (it is not modifying anything, it is just a subordinate clause)
(replacing "while" with "and" just to show that while is a conjunction)

D "the plants on our back porch" ... not a clause, no verb!
