Answer 1

The correct option that demonstrates the proper use of a comma is:

"Spencer is planning on getting a job after high school, but his parents want him to go to college."

This sentence correctly uses a comma before the conjunction "but" to separate two independent clauses. The other options contain comma splices, where independent clauses are improperly joined by a comma without a conjunction.
