Answer:
The words, "...my father..." is the nonrestrictive element in this sentence.
Explanation:
<em>A nonrestrictive element describes a word's meaning that is already clarified without the use of additional words. </em><em>It is not crucial to the</em><em> meaning of the </em><em>sentence</em><em> and is usually surrounded by commas.</em>
The sentence you provided (it needs commas after "Jim" and before the word "is.": "Jim, my father, is going to drive me to the mall."
We can just say, "Jim is going to drive me to the mall," and it will still make sense. Therefore, we would not need the words (they are nonrestrictive), "...my father..." because it is an unnecessary addition of words that one does not need in the sentence for it to make sense.
I hope this helps you understand! Have a nice day.

How did I pick this one?
In the 2nd one it doesnt have a proper Starting word For example: Who, Are, What, Why, ect. In the 3rd one It doesn't have the Question mark at the end. So it cant be it. And the last one, I dont think you would start a Sentance with "Behind"
Hope it helped! ^ ^
