Answer:

C. simple sentence

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple sentences consist of one independent clause. An example of a simple sentence is: I like pizza.

The other alternatives are incorrect because compound sentences contain at least two independent clauses; complex sentences have an independent clause and at least one subordinate clause; and complete sentences must possess a subject, verb and object.
