Which sentence correctly combines these two sentences with the use of an appositive?
my aunt meena is from california. my aunt meena is a nurse in a busy hospital.

a. my aunt meena, is from california and is a nurse in a busy hospital.
b. my aunt meena, a nurse in a busy hospital, is from california.
c. my aunt meena from california; is a nurse in a busy hospital.
d. my aunt meena is from california; and is a nurse, in a busy hospital.

Your answer would be B.

Explanation:

An appositive is a noun or noun phrase that renames another noun right beside. In the sentence above (b), the appositive phrase is a nurse in a busy hospital and it renames the noun phrase my Aunt Meena.

Nonessential appositive phrases are always offset with commas from the rest of the sentence. This is so because the information they provide is not considered essential to complete the meaning of the sentence. If they were dropped (1), the meaning of the sentence would be left unchanged. Apparently, the speaker believes that stating his/her aunt's birthplace is more relevant that her job (being a nurse in a busy hospital).
