Yes, it is D.
The sentences on both sides of the semicolon need to make sense on their own. So, "Tina is a quiet girl" can stand on its own. Likewise with "consequently, we were startled by her laugh".
I also just took the test and it was correct :) Hope I could help, good luck!
The version of this sentence which uses punctuation correctly is:
- Tina is a quiet girl; consequently, we were startled by her loud laugh.
