Answer:
The best revision of the sentence is "The lawyer presented a clear argument to the jury (it was unbelievable how influenced they were by his case) in hope of winning the trial."
Explanation:
This sentence includes information that is not determining to its meaning, this information can be set apart by the use of parenthesis.
One of the uses of parenthesis is to enclose detail information or information that adds detail to the general sentence or clarifies pieces of information in the main part. It separates defining from non defining information.
Well, let's see... I don't know what a coordinating conjunction is off the top of my head, but I know B isn't the answer, since 'independent' means 'highly capable of handling oneself'. C <em>certainly</em> isn't the answer, simply because you can see by this answer they obviously do combine with a dependent clause from time to time. That leaves us with D and A, which both leave the same term. However, I do believe I can use the word preceding <em>conjunction</em>, which is <em>coordinating</em>, to realize that 'and,' 'but,' and 'or' are coordinating conjunctions. Seriously, D cannot be the answer because not every sentence starts with any of those. So your answer is A.
