The answer is:

Upon hearing her diagnosis, she was filled with one emotion: relief.

In the chosen sentence, the comma is properly used when the sentence begins with a time reference. Besides, the colon is used to provide an explanation, illustration or extension, such a as the exact emotion she wishes to express - relief.

The rest of the alternatives are incorrect because the commas are wrongly placed and the brackets are unnecessary.

Answer from: Quest

there on the beach was a struggling turtle. around its bright green neck was a loop of soda can rings. in order to the planet, i have made a few changes to my life. the first change is reducing the number of straws used. the second change was to recycle. finally, i have worked hard to clean up litter. it is important to clean our ocean.

you may not think straws have a large impact but they do. imagine for every straw you sip out of a poor, , adorable turtle is being harmed. one way i chipped in to is by using metal straws. these straws are reusable and inexpensive. another change is simply turning down straws. by refusing a straw, i’m the turtles one drink at a time.

however, the ocean just doesn't have turtles. there are lots of creatures that live there and are harmed by all the litter. to prevent litter from growing it’s important to recycle. for me, i have started to buy most goods that are made out of recycled material. pura vidas, chacos, purses, and too many other items to even count. plus, when you buy those products they give money to charities. not only am i the environment, but i’m also feeling better about my self. finally, i have worked hard to clean up litter. it is important to clean our ocean.

Answer from: Quest

the pronoun reference replaces a noun, but you have to make sure there's no room for confusion.

in the first sentence "her" could be referring to shely or to the sister. the answer there is "shelly called her sister and told her about the new baby."

in the second sentence "it" could be referring to the roof or the floor. the answer there is "since the roof leaks on the family room floor, we need to repair the roof."
