Answer:

D. Josie will lead the discussion it is about a topic she knows well.

Explanation:

A fused sentence also exemplifies a run-on sentence that lacks a proper conjunction or punctuation mark(comma or semicolon) where the two independent clauses run together. These sentences are generally treated as errors that can be rectified by adding an appropriate punctuation mark or a subordinate or coordinate conjunction.

Thus, the sentence that exemplifies this claim would be the last option "Josie will lead the discussion it is about a topic she knows well" which would read as following after fixing this error:

"Josie will lead the discussion as it is about a topic that she knows well".

Loren, the new manager, is the antithesis of compassion; just yesterday, she fired two people because they were late to work once this week. Corporate headquarters, upset with declining sales, appointed Loren to replace a[n] impotent manager who had been spotted on the golf course during work hours one-too-many times. Loren's many changes and emendation(s) to company guidelines caused a[n] maelstrom in both the warehouse and the salesroom. Employees faced evaluations and new instructions that drove many to resign; however, it was part of Loren's plan. The people who quit, she reasoned, were just impediment to meeting the expected monthly profit margin. Loren spent the first two weeks familiarizing herself with the labyrinth of shelves and palettes in the warehouse. Shreds of textiles littered parts of the packaging area; some were hefty snippets of wool, and others were diaphanous scraps of silk that hovered in the gust created by passing forklifts. She occasionally stopped to introduce herself to the workers, but she ceased her introductions after noticing the regular look of chagrin on workers' faces as they scrambled to look busy or stumbled over the proper responses to her questions. After the first round of resignations-and, firings, most of the workers were intimidated by Loren's bestial management techniques.

Hope this helps! Please let me know if you need more help, or if you think my answer is incorrect. Brainliest would be MUCH appreciated. Have a great day!

Stay Brainy!
