Doesn't look like it needs commas or other punctuation, so I would cancel out C.
OpenStudy (conqueror):
What would you say ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
b
OpenStudy (conqueror):
Does it have a subject and a verb ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no????

why do you say b? think of all of the components you need for a complete sentence (subject+verb). Only if you're missing one or both of those things is it a sentence fragment.
OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):
and yes it does. the subject is Penelope. The verb is has.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
idk i just thought it was b this subject is new to me
OpenStudy (conqueror):
That's ok, so do you know what your answer is and why ?
OpenStudy (bloomlocke367):
oh. Well, it's not a sentence fragment.... what do you think it is, now that you can cross out sentence fragment?

OpenStudy (conqueror):
Yes, A...because it has a subject and a verb, and uses correct punctuation.
