Cteeth. A semicolon is kind of like a comma, but it usually connects similar actions, like in this case, brushing your teeth and rinsing. So, "Brush your teeth; rinse thoroughly when you finish."
TSO

The sentence written correctly looks like:
Brush your teeth; rinse thoroughly when you finish.

That is because "Brush your teeth" and "rinse thoroughly when you finish" are both independent phrases.

They can be joined together by either a period, or a semicolon. You can also join it using a comma and a conjunction.

The correct answer is C. teeth
