D. Not only; but also. The two conjunctions work together as a pair so they must both be included

Answer:

The answer is letter D. not only; but also.

Explanation:

First, let's remember that a conjunction is a word used to connect two words, phrases, or clauses. Correlative conjunctions are pairs of words that connect two ideas that are usually expressed in similar structures. Examples of correlative conjunctions are the pairs either/or and neither/nor.

The pair not only/but also indicates that both ideas are valid and included. When we state that Harriet Tubman was not only a nurse, but also a spy, we mean to say that she was both things. Study the example below to further explore these correlative conjunctions:

- When I travel next month, I'll visit not only Greece, but also Spain. ---> That means I will visit both countries. The ideas connected by not only/but also are, thus, valid and true.
