Solution

The correct option is D words or sentences
Here, "together" is redundant and the use of "and" is incorrect- A conjunction does not couple words TO sentences; it joins words, OR it joins sentences. D is the only option that rectifies this error and does not make any new ones. So, the answer is D.
