Answer:

d.to create a compound sentence from two fragments

Step-by-step explanation:

A subordinating conjunction is a word that joins a dependent clause and an independent one in a sentence, thereby forming a compound sentence from the two fragments.

A compound sentence contains a minimum of two independent clauses which are brought together by a conjunction or comma.
