My sisters are all artistic—Patricia writes, Mary sculpts, and Elizabeth composes.

Parallel structure is when the items in a list are all written in the same grammatical structure. In the correct answer (A), the grammatical structure of the list is Subject-Verb. Option B is not correct because the first and third items of the list are written Subject-Verb-Direct Object, but the second item is only Subject-Verb. Option C is in correct because the first item says what Patricia is and the last two items say what the girls do. This is also the reason option D is wrong. The first two items in the list tell what the two girls create while the last item says what Elizabeth is.
