The correct answer is:  [B]:  "semicolon" .
___________________________________________________________
<u>Note</u>:  
___________________________________________________________
Choice:  [A]:  "comma" — is INCORRECT.  Note that placing a "comma" would result in an error known as "comma splice".
___________________________________________________________
Choice:  [C]:  "period" — is INCORRECT.   Note that placing a "period" would be incorrect.  Doing so would result in a new sentence that does not begin with a capital letter.
____________________________________________________________
Choice:  [D]:  "no punctuation is needed" —is INCORRECT.  Note that if the statement were left alone, the statement would be a "<u>run-on sentence</u>". 
___________________________________________________________
The correct answer is:  [B]:  "semicolon".  If a new sentence could be formed; and if the ideas could connect; it is acceptable to place a "semicolon" between the "two potential statements to form one statement" ; and to NOT CAPITALIZE the first word of the "second [potential sentence]" —<u>unless</u> that "[second potential sentence] begins with a proper pronoun.
