Explanation:

It is important that Elena avoid gender stereotypes in her memo, using words of a neutral nature and avoiding articles that show genres such as "his", "he" "she" and "her". This is because women have participated more actively in the labor market and in the consumer class, so the use of the words "he is" can cause gender stereotypes. Thus, the best sentence that can replace the sentence written by Elena in the memo is represented in the alternative "C".
