The younger sister can't just arbitrarily divide up the property which they share. However, the younger sister could do something even worse. She could lease out her right to use the entire property to anyone, even the older sister's ex or Louis CK. That's why it's A instead of B.

A clever idea. However, I think tenancy in common does not have rights of survivorship, just rights of transfer and usage. I'm going with B, because the lease would keep the older sister from using the land which is hers to use under tenancy in common. But what do I know. I'm just a retired tax accountant.

A - Tenancy in common means they both have the right to the entire property. However, if the younger sister concocted an elaborate plot to have a southern lawyer kill the older sister, she would get the right to the land that she already has.
