The correct answer is actually A. Toe dancing was developed in the early nineteenth century, but it was not widely used until the 1830s.

A comma splice incorrectly connects two independent clauses - where there should be a conjunction, a comma is incorrectly placed, like in the example above.

B is incorrect because the only thing that changed was that the comma was deleted - it didn't actually fix anything; C is incorrect because the subject is missing after yet - it should be: ...yet IT was not widely used... D is incorrect because there should be a semicolon (;) in front of however and not a comma.

- "a nonrestrictive clause functions as a modifier to a noun (that is an object, person or concept). these clauses can be described by the following three options: it is set off by comas, it contains a subject and a verbs and it adds nonessential information to the sentence.

for example, in "here is bill gates, who confounded microsoft software company" we can identify "who confounded microsoft software company" as a nonrestrictive clause modifying the noun bill gates. this clause can be describes as a nonrestrictive clause because it is separated by a comma, it adds nonessential information to identify who bill gates is and it must contain both a subject (who) and a verb (confounded)."
