Hope this helps, have a nice day!

The correct answer is A) "My mother went to the grocery store to buy food for our upcoming camping trip."

The infinive phrase has different functions within a sentence. In this case, the infinitive phrase "to buy food" Β is acting as an adverb since it is answering why the mother went to the grocery store.

Option B) is grammatically incorrect as it uses "for" followed by "to buy".
