Solution

The correct option is A culture;

The given sentence describes two separate clauses that can exist independently. However, the use of colon (:) to join both the clauses is incorrect. A colon is generally used to introduce a list of items in a sentence.

A semi colon (;) is used between two independent clauses when the coordinating conjunction is omitted. Thus, the correct answer should be Option A.
Option B - A hyphen is used for the formation of certain compound terms. For example, eye-opener, free-for-all etc.
Option C - An em dash(---) is used to create a strong break to show an interruption ,or a change of thought.
