Answer 1

The sentence type used in the text given below is Compound sentence.

Explanation:

Compound sentences are those in which two clauses are joint with the help of coordinating conjunctions e.g (and, but, so, nor, for, or, yet etc.)

In compound sentences clauses may joint with the help of coordinate conjunctions, commas or semicolon. In the given text two clause are joint with coordinate conjunction that is "and". A clause is a part of sentence with a subject and a verb making a complete sense. Hence the given sentence is compound sentence because more than one subject is used giving complete sense and then joint by a conjunction.
