Answer 1

Answer:

Complex

Explanation:

A complex sentence is a type of sentence made up of one independent clause (one that expresses a complete thought) and one dependent clause (one that can not stand alone as a sentence because it does not express a complete thought).

In this type of sentence, the dependent clause is often introduced by a coordinating conjunction such as even though, when, after, while, because, since, if and until. Take a look at the following examples (independent clauses are underlined):
