To determine the correctly punctuated sentence, we need to examine the punctuation used in each option.
1. "Thank you for asking me to meet with your patient, Wonder Woman, who came to the appointment accompanied by her husband." This sentence uses commas correctly to set off the name "Wonder Woman" as an appositive phrase, which provides additional information about the patient.
2. "Thank you for asking me to meet with your patient Wonder Woman who came to the appointment accompanied by her husband." This sentence does not use any commas to set off the name "Wonder Woman," and it lacks the necessary punctuation to distinguish the appositive phrase.
3. "Thank you for asking me to meet with your patient, Wonder Woman who came to the appointment accompanied by her husband." This sentence incorrectly places a comma before the word "who," which suggests an incomplete thought or a comma splice.
Based on the analysis above, it appears that sentence 1 is correctly punctuated. However, if you received feedback indicating that you missed the correct answer, there might be a specific reason provided. It would be helpful to review the explanation given for your mistake to ensure accuracy.
