i think 1 is Compound because one is independent and one is dependent

563blackghost:

Usually compounds contain independent clauses and are joined together by a conjunction. So the 1st one is compound.

demolisher1224:

do u know the others

563blackghost:

The second one would be A.

563blackghost:

3 would identify as complex.

563blackghost:

4 contains a conjunction with independent so it is compound.

563blackghost:
