Answer:

Complex sentence

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four different types of sentences in English.

1. simple sentences: A simple sentence is one that has only one clause that stands on its own.

2. compound sentences: In a compound sentence, there are no dependent clauses and at least two independent clauses.

3. compound-complex sentences: A sentence with at least two independent clauses that can stand on their own, plus one or more dependent clauses.

4. complex sentences: Complex sentences are longer sentences consisting of one independent clause and one or more dependent clauses.
