Answer:
Sentence D is an example of a complex sentence.
Explanation:
A complex sentence contains one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. The difference between an independent clause and a dependent one is that the former can stand alone as a sentence as it represents a complete thought. The ungrammaticality of sentence A proves this point. As you can see, without the independent clause (B), the dependent clause (A) does not represent a complete idea, it depends on the main clause to complete its meaning (C).
A) *Because it is cruel
B) The death penalty should be abolished
C) Because it is cruel, the death penalty should be abolished
The most probable and most likely answer to this problem would be C. revealed much about their behavior.
Out of the four options presented in this problem, C. would only need a complete subject to make it a correct sentence. Options A. by closely watching and gathering data and B. to terrifying effect would probably need other more words and/or phrases to make them more complete. D. insect studies, on the other hand, can also be considered as a correct option IF insect become the subject.
