<u>Explanation:</u>
Note, a simple sentence refers to a sentence having only one clause, with a single subject and predicate. While a clause is a group of words that contains a verb and may form part of a sentence or complete a sentence.
<u>Examples;</u>
- 3. Often, organic food products are marketed as the healthier and safer food choice.
- 8. Before the 20th century, all food was organic.
A complex sentence is one that contains an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. The independent clause can stand on his own, dependent cannot stand (or make meaning) on its own.
<u>Examples;</u>
- 2. Organic foods are produced without man-made pesticides and chemical fertilizers.
- 6. Organic food sales have grown immensely over the last decade, and most traditional grocery stores now carry organic foods.
A compound sentence contains at least two independent clauses joined by a comma, semicolon, or conjunction.
<u>Examples;</u>
- 4. Skeptics of organic foods believe that the natural pesticides used in organic farming may be just as harmful as man-made pesticides.
- 5. Many people believe that organic foods are too expensive, but others believe that the health benefits of eating organic foods outweigh the expense.
- 9. Whether or not you chose to eat organic foods, you should maintain a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains.
A compound-complex sentence has at least two independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses.
<u>Examples;</u>
- 7. Advocates of organic foods claim that organic farming is better for the environment; however, skeptics say that organic farming is not sustainable because it requires more land than traditional farming.
- 10. Buying fruits and vegetables in season, avoiding salty and sugary foods, and practicing moderation in eating can go a long way toward leading a healthy lifestyle.
