Answer:

The sentence above that is properly punctuated is A.

Explanation:

A is correctly punctuated because of the use of the semicolon.  You should use a semicolon before a subordinating conjunction such as <em>therefore</em> when it introduces a complete sentence. What is more, it is also convenient to use a comma after such words and terms.  Then, the sentence also illustrates the use of the comma to name each of the items on a list: Rio, Sao Paulo and Manaus (different cities in Brazil).
