Answer: The correct answer is : b) compound sentence

Explanation: The compound sentence is formed by two simple sentences joined by a connector (conjunctions). This type of sentence carries two or more propositions, has more than one verb and is divided into three classes: those formed by coordination, by juxtaposition or by subordination.
