Answer 1

The correct answer is (Choice C) years—.

The sentence will read as: "Carrara marble—which has been quarried for over two thousand years—has had many famous applications, including the Pantheon and Michelangelo's David."

This choice appropriately maintains the dash to indicate that the phrase "which has been quarried for over two thousand years" is an interruption in the sentence.
