Answer:

Compound

Step-by-step explanation:

A compound sentence is a sentence that has two or more independent clauses that can stand alone. The sentence above is a compound sentence because it contains two independent clauses that were linked together by the coordinating conjunction, "because".

A simple sentence has just one clause, whereas a complex sentence has dependent and independent clauses.
