Answer:
B. A sentence that includes two independent clauses connected by a conjunction.
Step-by-step explanation:
Compound sentences can make your writing very rich as you can connect two distinct independent clauses (no dependent clauses) using coordinating conjunctions such as for, and, nor etc (FANBOYS).
Example would be:
Juan likes to hunt, and he is going hunting on Sunday.
"Juan likes to hunt" is an independent clause where "Juan" is the subject, "likes" is the action, and a complete thought is expressed because we know what he likes to do now.
"He is going hunting on Sunday" is an independent clause where "He" is the subject, "is going" is the action, and a complete thought is expressed as we now know where he is going Sunday and what action he is doing.
The conjunction "and" is used, and a comma is correctly placed before "and."
