The sentence "Aesop who lived from 620 BC to 560 BC, was a writer of fables.", that is given in the question is a complex sentence. The correct option among all the options given in the question is the second option. A complex sentence always has a dependent and an independent subordinate clause.

The given sentence above is an example of a complex sentence. A complex sentence consists of an independent and a dependent or subordinate clause and they are usually connected by a subordinating conjunction. In the sentence, the independent clause is, Aesop was a writer of fables. And the dependent or subordinate clause is, who lived from 620 to 560 B.C. The subordinating conjunction used is a relative pronoun "who".
