Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Entering a career is a traditional marker of adulthood as it signals the transition from education/training to taking on responsibilities in the workforce and contributing to society. The other choices may also be important milestones, but they do not necessarily signify full independence and adulthood in the same way.
