Answer 2

C- Correlative conjunction

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlatives conjunctions are a type of conjunction that join sentence elements that are equally important, and that come in pairs but are not next to each other, such as Both/and, neither/nor, not only/but also, as/as, as many/as, such/that, rather/than and whether/or.

Therefore, the conjunctions “Neither” and “nor” are correlatives.
