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.
<u>Explanation:</u>
1. <u>COMPLEX SENTENCE.</u> 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: <em>we visited the shelter. </em>
- the part that contains the dependent clause: <em>where many animals are waiting for homes.</em>

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 <u>only a compound sentence.</u> A conjunction "and" is used to link the clauses together.

- the part that contains the Independent clause is: <em>We spent an hour at the park.
</em>
- the part that contains the dependent clause is: <em>Which was packed, and then we left.
</em>
