Solution

The correct option is B Sona's sister is an artist.
The possessive case of a singular noun is formed by adding an apostrophe at the end of the noun followed by the letter "s".
In this case, the possessive form of the noun "Sona" is "Sona's'". Hence the correct answer is option B.
Options A and C are incorrect as they do not follow the pattern mentioned above i.e apostrophe followed by letter s.
Option D conveys an entirely different meaning compared to the initial sentence. Hence, this is incorrect.
