Ming and her sister, who is home from college for spring break, organized a bake sale to benefit the victims of the fire" (C).
We should put the comma around the unnecessary information. In this case, the unnecessary information is that Ming's sister is home from college for spring break. In other words, we could eliminate it without changing the meaning of the sentence. If we did this, the sentence would be "Ming and her sister organized a bake sale to benefit the victims of the fire."
Answer: The answer to your question would be that the version of the sentence that has correctly placed commas is the following one: Ming and her sister, who is home from college for spring break, organized a bake sale to benefit the victims of the fire. That is, the correct option would be C.
Explanation:
This is a nonessential relative clause. This means that the information provided by the clause is not necessary to identify the noun it modifies. In fact, the clause could be dropped without altering the meaning of the sentence (see 1). Because the clause is nonessential, it should be separated from the rest of the sentece by means of the commas.
