Answer:

"The strange noises continued, and the panther became frightened."

Step-by-step explanation:

A complex sentence is a sentence that contains an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. An independent clause can stand alone as a sentence, but a dependent clause even though it has a subject and a verb cannot stand alone.
