The correct option is B.
An appositive phrase refers to a noun or a pronoun that identifies or rename another noun or pronoun; it gives more information about that noun or pronoun. An appositive together with its modifier is called an appositive phrase. An appositive phrase is said to be non- essential when it adds information to a sentence whose meaning is already clear. Non-essential appositives are usually set off by a coma.

However, the author feels that Thomas Young was too confident in his assumptions, which caused him to fail in his task, and that he "put roadblocks in his own path".

Still, the author believes that Young's contribution was key to the final deciphering of the hieroglyphs, since he "laid a solid groundwork for others in their attempts to decipher the hieroglyphs".
