What is the function of complement shown in parentheses this sentence Tina sings choir and performs solos?

The word "and" in parentheses in the sentence "Tina sings (and) choir and performs solos" functions as a conjunction connecting the two phrases "sings choir" and "performs solos."

However, the sentence is grammatically incorrect because "and" is not necessary in this context. It should be written as:

"Tina sings choir and performs solos."

The word "and" serves as a conjunction to connect the two activities Tina participates in: singing choir and performing solos.
