C.
run-on sentence

Answer 2

complete sentence - any sentence that is complete, without anything missing

run on sentence contains a semicolon, and two clauses. One is independent, and the other is subordinate.

Answer 3

It can be B, but it might as well be C.

Answer 4

if you are choosing one option, then be precise, instead of saying that it is "complete sentence" (run on, compound, compound complex, complex, and simple sentence), SAY that it is a run on sentence.

Answer 5

but a run-on sentence is when independent clauses are joined without appropriate punctuation and here there is appropriate punctuation, the ";".

Answer 6

no, run on has 1 dependent and 1 subordinate clause

Answer 7

A run-on is a sentence in which two or more independent clauses (i.e., complete sentences) are joined without appropriate punctuation or conjunction.
