Answer:

C

Explanation:

Answer:

The correct answer is option C) " In time, of course, all issues get resolved, but not necessarily in the way you would like."

Explanation:

The correct option is C) since it uses commas in the correct way: it separates the two independant clauses with a comma followed by a coordinating conjunction.

Option A is incorrect since it links the two independant clauses just with a comma (comma splice) and no coordinating conjunction.

Option B is incorrect since it uses semicolon to list item instead of a colon

Option D is incorrect since it uses the colon instead of a comma to separate the sentences.
