Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Solution:
Correct answer: Although.
Why 'Although' is correct and the others are not:
'Although' shows contrast (in spite of the fact that). It correctly conveys that she is independent despite being young.
'Because' gives a reason. Using it would claim that her youth is the reason for independence, which does not match the intended contrast.
'Whether' introduces alternatives or doubt and is not grammatically appropriate in this sentence.
'Unless' means 'except if' and introduces a condition, not a contrast, so it does not fit the meaning here.
Complete sentence: Although she is young, she is very independent.
