    The sentence that shows correct semicolon usages is C. Swimming is my favorite form of exercise; it gives me energy. A semicolon divides two independent clauses. That means if the sentences could be alone they would be valid. You don't put a coordinating conjunction after the semicolon, continue on with the sentence.
