A Lion lay asleep in the forest, his great head resting on his paws. A timid little Mouse came upon him unexpectedly, and in her

fright and haste to get away, ran across the Lion’s nose. Roused from his nap, the Lion laid his huge paw angrily on the tiny creature to kill her. “Spare me!” begged the poor Mouse. “Please let me go and some day I will surely repay you.” The Lion was much amused to think that a Mouse could ever help him. But he was generous and finally let the Mouse go.Some days later, while stalking his prey in the forest, the Lion was caught in the toils of a hunter’s net. Unable to free himself, he filled the forest with his angry roaring. The Mouse knew the voice and quickly found the Lion struggling inthe net. Running to one of the great ropes that bound him, she gnawed it until it parted, and soon the Lion was free.“You laughed when I said I would repay you,” said the Mouse. “Now you see that even a Mouse can help a Lion.” *

This impact was felt from the bottom up, and these contributions to
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

It is a compound-complex sentence

Explanation:

To answer this question we need to understand what the definitions are:

A simple sentence has just one independent clause or one complete thought. It has one subject, one verb, and modifiers.

A complex sentence has one independent clause (one subject, a verb, its modifiers, and a complete thought; this sentence can stand alone) and one dependent clause (it doesn't have a complete thought, it depends on the independent clause).

A compound sentence has two independent clauses, they can stand alone, both of them have a complete thought, and they are joined by coordinating conjunctions 'and', 'but', 'or'.

A complex-compound sentence has two independent clauses that can stand on their own without losing a complete thought, and one dependent clause (it can't stand alone; it depends on the independent clause).

So let's look at the given sentence:

<em>This impact was felt from the bottom up, and these contributions to</em>

<em>American institutions may be the ones which most intimately affect the</em>

<em>lives of all Americans.</em>

We can see that the first clause is independent - <u>This impact was felt from the bottom up</u> - it has a complete thought; it can stand alone.

The other clause is also independent - <u>and these contributions to</u>

<u>American institutions may be the ones</u> - it has a complete thought; it can stand alone; it is connected to the other clause with coordinating conjunction 'and'.

The last clause is the dependent clause - <u>which most intimately affects the lives of all Americans</u> - it can't stand alone; it doesn't have a complete thought. To be exact it is an adjective clause, it explains the noun 'contributions' or the pronoun 'one'.

So, we have two independent clauses and one dependent. It is a complex-compound sentence.

I hope it helped you :)
