The correct answer is - The comma attempts to set apart an essential element.


The phrase that holds the globe in her hand is essential to the meaning of the sentence and should therefore not be separated by a comma. Essential phrases are never separated by commas because otherwise they could be omitted, which is not the case here. Given that it is essential, it is important for the meaning.
