clear all

Explanation:

To determine the correct sentence, we analyze each option:

• Option 2: Starting a new sentence with "And" after a period is incorrect as "And" here should be a conjunction in a compound predicate, not start a new sentence.
• Option 3: "Mom loving..." creates a sentence fragment (no main verb for the subject "Mom" in a complete sense).
• Option 4: Using a period after "stories" and then "That..." creates a sentence fragment (the "That" clause is dependent and can't stand alone after a period).
• Option 1: "Mom loves to share these details and recount the extravagant, hilarious stories Granddaddy Roy told as the girls swung around in their seats." has a correct compound predicate ("loves to share... and recount...") and a properly structured relative clause ("Granddaddy Roy told...") without fragment issues.

Answer:

The first option (the top - most option with the text "Mom loves to share these details and recount the extravagant, hilarious stories Granddaddy Roy told as the girls swung around in their seats.")
