Answer:

b.) The new employee neither showed up on time nor followed the

dress code.

Explanation:

Correlative conjunctions are pairs of conjunctions that work together to coordinate two items. In sentence B, “neither” and “nor” are used correctly to connect two negative ideas about the new employee’s actions. The other sentences either do not use the correlative conjunctions correctly or have grammatical issues. For example, sentence C incorrectly mixes “neither” with “or” instead of “nor”
