Answer:

<em>The sentence that is puctuated correctly is</em><em> B. When the milk carton fell, it spilled; but I picked it up before all the milk flowed onto the floor</em>.

Explanation:

Sentence B is punctuated correctly because the following puctuation rules are respected:

  • there are <u>two related independent clauses joint by a semicolon</u> -<em>when the milk carton fell, it spilled </em>and <em>but I picked it up before all the mil flowed onto the floor.</em>
  • the <u>adverbial clause</u> -<em>when the milk carton fell</em>- is <u>separated from the rest of the sentence with a comma</u>.
