When you enumerate you need to put comas between all the items except the ones which are connected by "and" : as A is not correct as it does not have comas, and B is incorrect as it has comas where "and" is.
now, in a way both C and D are correct, but C is the usual accepted version, and D is an example of "Oxford coma" (where the coma is optional, to remain on the safe side, choose C).
The correct answer would be - A. The ring was too tight for my finger. If you say both of the sentences out loud you can hear which one is a sentence someone would say in conversation and which one sounds incorrect. Hope this helped!
