The comma used in these sentences is known as the Oxford comma. This comma is the final comma in a list of things. The use of the Oxford comma is up to you. Still, omitting it can cause misunderstandings, such as in D.

d) I wrote poems about my best friends, the queen of England and the tooth fairy

D is understood as if the speaker's best friends were the queen and the tooth fairy.
