The correct answer is D. As her leg jiggled up and down, she chewed a ragged nail and checked her watch

Explanation:

In English language, the most traditional syntax or structure of sentences is that in which the subject of the action is placed fist then followed by the verb and finally the object or complement if there is any, in the same way additionally details are placed before or after the main sentence forming clause that also follows the same order. This implies the sentence with the most traditional syntax or structure is "As her leg jiggled up and down, she chewed a ragged nail and checked her watch" because in this the main sentence "she chewed a ragged nail and checked her watch" follow the subject, verb, object organization, as well as the clause "As her leg jiggled up and down" that is placed before the main sentence.
