Jumping farther than anyone thought was possible.
D
The blasts of arctic air caused the tops of the trees to wave back and forth.

Explanation

A complete sentence has a subject and a predicate and expresses a complete thought. “She caught her first fish that day,” “The blasts of arctic air caused the tops of the trees to wave back and forth,” and “He and Sonia named the squirrel Rocky” each tell what someone or something did. “The lemon tree on the porch” is only a phrase, and “Jumping farther than anyone thought was possible” does not express a complete thought.
