Solution

The correct option is D for
Conjunctions are words that link two or more words, phrases, or clauses together.
Option D is the correct answer as 'for' successfully expresses the link between the two clauses 'it must have rained last night' and 'the ground is wet'.
Options A and B are incorrect because 'last' and 'wet' are adjectives for the nouns 'night' and 'ground' respectively.
Option C is incorrect as 'must' is a verb and not a conjunction.
