What u have here is a comma splice.
When 2 independent sentences are connected with only a comma. Which is incorrect punctuation
This could be fixed by separating the independent clauses with a comma + conjunction, or a semi-colon.

Hope this helps and have a great day!!

The answer is comma splice because those are two independent clauses
