B.

Explanation:

If you use nouns in both cases, you will have a revised sentence with parallelism. "Shelia E. is a singer and drum player."

Answer:

B. lacking parallelism

Explanation:

The original sentence contains a predicate nominative (<em>singer</em>) and an action verb (<em>plays</em>), which shows lack of parallelism.

The best way to fix the error would be to use a parallel structure, which is the repetition of a certain grammatical form within a sentence:

"Shelia E. <em>sings </em>and<em> plays</em> the drums."  

Now the sentence uses two action verbs <em>sings </em>and<em> plays</em> in the present tense, and this is an example of parallelism.
