Incomplete question. The full question read;

Identify the sentence type for each sentence.

We visited the shelter where many animals are waiting for homes.
We petted the cats, and they purred while the dogs barked in the other room.
The dogs wanted to play, and we took them to a dog park.
We spent an hour at the park, which was packed, and then we left.

Explanation:

1. COMPLEX SENTENCE. Note, a complex sentence is one that has an independent clause and may also have one or more dependent clauses. From the sentence,

the part that contains the Independent clause is: we visited the shelter.
the part that contains the dependent clause: where many animals are waiting for homes.

Note also that, a dependent clause is a clause that cannot stand on its own; since it does not express a complete thought.

2. COMPOUND-COMPLEX SENTENCE: Note, a compound-complex sentence is one that usually has at least 2 independent clauses and at least one dependent clause. Because the sentences are usually longer, conjunction, comma, or semi colon is are used to link up the independent and dependent clauses together.

3. COMPOUND SENTENCE. This sentence, although not a compound-complex, but only a compound sentence. A conjunction "and" is used to link the clauses together.

4. COMPOUND-COMPLEX SENTENCE: We note the following;

the part that contains the Independent clause is: We spent an hour at the park.

the part that contains the dependent clause is: Which was packed, and then we left.

the part that contains the conjunction is: "and"
