Your question does not provide the underlined portion of the sentence. The complete sentence is the following:

Fruit is a nutritious and energizing snack, and it's also yummy.

Answer:

and it's also delicious.

Explanation:

Yummy is an informal adjective to indicate that food is delicious. As a consequence, the best revision of the sentence is the one which contains a more suitable adjective for a formal letter to the school principal.

The rest of the alternatives are incorrect because they are all informal expressions which are inappropriate for a formal writing style.
