Answer:

A). When training a dog, the trainer must remember two things: the dog does not comprehend the trainer's language, and the dog cannot read the trainer's mind.

Explanation:

Colon(:) is illustrated as the punctuation mark that is employed to reflect a separation or introduce a list or explanation in the sentence.  

As per the question, the revision that best reflects the correct use of the colon would be option A as here the colon(:) is employed as a precursor to show a list of items that explains the previous sentence and describes that 'the trainer must remember two things' which are 'the dog does not comprehend the trainer's language' and 'the dog cannot read the trainer's mind'. Therefore, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

The correct option is A: When training a dog, the trainer must remember two things: the dog does not comprehend the trainer's language, and the dog cannot read the trainer's mind.

A colon may be used between independent clauses when the second sentence explains, illustrates, paraphrases, or expands on the first sentence. The colon is used to introduce a list of items. A colon is also used before a quotation, and sometimes before direct speech.

In this case two items are introduced after the use of colon which are what the trainer must remember.
