The question asks us to identify the sentence with incorrect comma usage. Let's analyze each sentence:<br /><br />1. "Unless you plan to buy the item, please do not touch it." - This sentence correctly uses a comma after the introductory clause "Unless you plan to buy the item."<br /><br />2. "Gretel always gets nervous when she speaks in front of the class." - This sentence does not contain a comma, and it is not necessary as there is no introductory clause, no list, or no independent clause that needs to be separated.<br /><br />3. "I came as soon as I heard the news, which I was very happy about." - This sentence incorrectly uses a comma to separate the independent clause "I came as soon as I heard the news" from the dependent clause "which I was very happy about." The dependent clause is providing additional information about the news, and it should not be separated from the independent clause by a comma.<br /><br />4. "You can come over for dinner whenever you want." - This sentence does not contain a comma, and it is not necessary as there is no introductory clause, no list, or no independent clause that needs to be separated.<br /><br />Therefore, the sentence with incorrect comma usage is the third one.
