Answer 4 cannot be it right off the bat, since compound-compound doesn't exist.
If a compound - complex sentence loses the dependent clause, it is no longer complex, since complex sentences require a dependent and to independent clauses conjoined with a comma and conjunction such as "and". So answer 3 can not be it.
So that leaves either simple or compound.
The sentence is still contains an independent clause from when it was compound-complex, therefore answer 2, compound, is the answer.
Answer:
1. if you don't understand a question you can put it on this site and people will look at your question and they will explain it to you.
2. If other people need help you can explain to them and help them out and then they can understand it. It would be like you are the teacher and a student would be asking you a question and you have to explain it to them very clearly and sometimes you might be the student yourself and then another person ( aka teacher) will help you out.
3.You can get points for explaining a answer and people can thank you for helping them out and you can do the same when other people help you out and when people check your profile they can see that you are good if you have a lot of badges and a lot of points and they will see that you are a person that they can depend on.

Photosynthesis produces oxygen and glucose mainly. The oxygen gets released into the air, because oxygen to plants is like carbon dioxide to us. It doesnt harm them, but they cant use it. The glucose ends up either being used by the plant or stored somewhere within the plant to be used later.
