Answer:

B. Even in bad weather, Marco wakes up early each morning and he takes his dogs for a walk.

Step-by-step explanation:

dependent clause + independent clause + independent clause

A compound-complex sentence must contain at least two independent clauses and at least one dependent clause. (The order of the clauses is unimportant.)
