The correct answer is B) A first-class employee is dependable, loyal, and efficient.
The sentence that is correctly punctuated is option B) "A first-class employee is dependable, loyal, and efficient."
To identify the correct punctuation, we need to understand the rules for punctuating a list of items within a sentence. In this case, we have a list: "dependable," "loyal," and "efficient." When punctuating a list, we use commas to separate each item in the list.
Option A) does not have a comma after "loyal," so it is not punctuated correctly.
Option C) has a comma before "dependable" but not after "loyal," so it is also not punctuated correctly.
Option D) uses a colon (:) instead of commas to separate the items, which is not the correct punctuation for a list.
Option B) is the correct choice because it uses commas to separate each item in the list, making it properly punctuated.
