Literary analysis? I’m not sure, there isn’t enough detail.
You forgot to include the choices, but the answer is D. Reflexive writing is used by accomplished writers, while extensive
writing is used by beginning writers.
(A) is not the right answer because a compound sentence contains two sets of subject and verb pairs. A compound sentence is basically two simple sentences that are "compounded". (B) is not the right answer because a compound sentence can contain a comma and a conjunction or a semicolon. An example of a compound sentence with a semicolon is "I did not eat the disgusting dinner; I snuck some cereal instead". (C) is the correct answer because a compound sentence contains TWO simple sentences, not one. This rules out (D). I hope this helps!
Im confused what are you asking
