Answer:

I need to leave for school right now, however, I don't have all of my school supplies gathered

The sentence in option (D) is correctly punctuated.

Explanation:

Punctuations are very important in a passage. They make a passage meaningful and easy to understand.

Option D uses comma at correct places, before and after, “however”. Other sentences are not correct grammatically. Use of ‘but’ and ‘although’ is not correct in option B and C respectively. In sentence A, semi colon should not be used beforebecause’. So, these options A, B and C are incorrect, and the correct answer is D.
