A subject is classified as a compound subject when it is composed of two subjects within the sentence. Based on the given sentence above, the portion that contains a compound subject is BUD ABBOTT AND LOU COSTELLO. Notice that there are two nouns/ subjects and this is the topic of the sentence.

Answer:

B. Budd Abbott and Lou Costello

Step-by-step explanation:

A compound subject is a subject consisting of two or more nouns, often joined by a comma or by coordinating conjunction like or, nor, and or neither. The portion of the sentence that contains a compound subject, then, is “Budd Abbott and Lou Costello” because it is what is being mainly described in the sentence and it consists of two names of people (that is, nouns) joined by the conjunction “and.”
