"<em>Tom went to the grocery store, and Jerry went to the library."</em>

The correct answer is A. Compound sentence.

<em>A compound sentence is one composed by two independent clauses joined by a conjunction. </em>

  • <em>Independent clauses:  </em>It is a sentence that can stand alone (It has no need of complement to have a logical meaning), in the sentence there are two independent clauses:

<em>1. Tom went to the grocery store  --  2. Jerry went to the library.</em>


  • <em>Conjunction: </em>It is a connector, in this case is one of the coordinating conjunctions (For, AND, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So) and it connects the two independent clauses.

He is probably aware of people's perception of his appearance, but he doesn't care, because he has other priorities, responsibilities and concerns.
