Answers:

1. the word that joins the two parts is "and"

2. the subject is "they"

Step-by-step explanation:

1. the words joining compound sentences can be easily remembered using the acronym 'fanboys': for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so

2. the subject of a sentence is the person/thing that is doing or being something

i hope this helps! :D
