A conjunction is the logical operation of connecting two or more propositions using the operator "and". 

Option (4) is correct as in this case, the conjunction is between the statements "John is tall" and "Mary is short", and the resulting compound statement is true only if both statements are true. 

Option (2) is incorrect as this is a conjunction, but it does not connect the correct prepositions together. 

Option (3) is incorrect as this is a disjunction, not a conjunction. 

Option (4) is incorrect as this is the negation of a conjunction, not a conjunction.
