The correct option is <u><em>B. Missing words in a quotation</em></u>.

Further Explanation:

The use of ellipses indicates the missing words in a quotation. All the other three options are incorrect to be selected for the use of ellipses.

An ellipsis is referred to the series of dots mentioned in the sentence to indicate the omission in the sentence. The omission can either be of a word, phrase or the entire section. The original meaning is not altered during the process. Ellipses not just indicate a sentence left intentionally uncompleted, but it also represents the pause or any awkward silence prevailing in the speech. When the ellipses are used at the end of the sentence, they indicate the untold feeling or an unexpressed thought. In the beginning, they indicate the silence which the speaker gets into before starting his speech. One of the most commonly used ellipses is triple-dot glyph (...). There are certain rules which are to follow while using the ellipses. At one hand a dot (.) which is also known as a period or full stop is used to end the statement. On the other hand, three such dots (...) symbolizes the continuation of the speech. It indicates a long speech ahead which has not been mentioned at a particular time.

Air and water is or are necessary for life.​
JulsSmile [24]

Answer: Air and water <em><u>are</u></em> necessary for life.

Explanation:

Air and water are a plural subject because a subject made up of nouns joined by 'and' makes a compound  subject, unless that subject's intended sense is singular, therefore the verb must be conjugated in the plural: "They are".
