The correct answer is B. change lumine to luminescent.
We need an adjective in front of the word <em>appendage </em>and <em>lumine </em>is not an adjective. It is a verb, a rather obsolete verb, which means the same as <em>to illuminate, to brighten up. </em>On the other hand, luminescent is an adjective, and it means <em>producing light. </em>
