Answer:

The correct answer option is D. compound sentence.

Explanation:

We are given the following group of words and we are to determine if it is a compound sentence, a run-on sentence, or a sentence fragment:

This is a compound sentence because it has two independent clauses which are joined by using a conjunction 'and'.

Therefore, the correct answer option is D.
