Explanation:

A semi-colon is a punctuation mark that is used to separate two or more related independent clauses without the use of a coordinating conjunction. It is also used to list items or elements of a sentence and can be used to join and separate the sentences that are related.

In the given options, the correct usage of the semicolon is seen in sentence 2. This is because the first part of the sentence contains a number of things that can be done whereas the second part talks about a related topic but different from the first part.

In the first independent clause, we use the comma to separate the lists and then use a semi-colon to separate but join the two independent clauses together.

Thus, the correct answer is option 2.
