Doubt : though the C is the only correct option, but it also lacks a Main punctuation. As per the rule to list three items you use X,Y,and Z. There should be a comma before AND. However C doesnot employs any punctuation before AND and still correct.
to me it is a Run on Sentence. Because "taciturn and suspicious of teenagers are considered one entity" and then the form turns out to be X,Y, which itself is incorrect.
Please explain.??
