The correct answer is - Karen Carpenter was admired not only for her singing but also for her excellent drumming skills.

Coordination shows us that two or more ideas are equal and such equality is emphasized when each idea is written in the same grammatical form. That is a word can coordinate with a word if it is the same grammatical class (noun, verb, adverb, preposition, adjective).

Coordinating conjunctions (for, and, but, or, nor, yet) between elements in parallel constructions.

Besides, to join two independent clauses with a coordinating conjunction (for, and, but, or, nor, yet), you may use a comma before the coordinating conjunction.
