Explanation:

For the first question:

• The original sentence "My jeans were hanging on the clothesline, and a wren tried to build a nest in them" is a compound sentence joined by "and" which is correct. "Therefore" implies a cause - effect relationship which is not present here. Deleting "and" would make it a run - on sentence in some cases (depending on context, but as it is, with "and" it's proper). Changing the comma to a semicolon is not necessary as "and" is already used to join the two independent clauses.

For the second question (assuming we have to go by general knowledge as the article content isn't provided):

• "Exclusivity" generally means being limited to one. "Fleeting or short - lived" is more related to terms like "ephemeral". "Being sensitive to relationship problems" has no direct connection to "exclusivity".

Answer:

b) No change needs to be made to this sentence.
b) condition of being limited to one person
