OpenStudy (phebe):

A compound sentence has two independent clauses or sentences. The independent clauses can be joined by a coordinating conjunction (such as "and," "for" and "but") or a semicolon. SO...........DO YOU THINK THIS IS THE ANSWER?

OpenStudy (phebe):

A RUN-ON SENTENCE (sometimes called a "fused sentence") has at least two parts, either one of which can stand by itself (in other words, two independent clauses), but the two parts have been smooshed together instead of being properly connected.

A simple sentence is a sentence consisting of only one clause, with a single subject and predicate.

OpenStudy (phebe):

Your answer is NOT B though

OpenStudy (phebe):

YOUR CORRECT ANSWER IS" COMPOUND SENTENCE

OpenStudy (phebe):
