Answer:
Simple sentence
Explanation:
Every sentence must contain a subject and predicate and express a complete thought. Independent clauses are clauses that can stand alone as sentences, which means that they possess all of these elements. Dependent clauses don't, which is why they can't stand alone.
A simple sentence is a sentence that consists of one independent clause.
A compound sentence is a sentence that consists of at least two independent clauses.
A complex sentence is a sentence that consists of one independent clause and at least one dependent clause.
The given sentence is an example of a simple sentence. It consists of one independent clause. Its subject is <em>my mother </em>and the predicate is <em>baked cookies and chocolate cupcakes</em>. That is one subject and one predicate, which means that this is one independent clause.
This is why the first option is the correct one.
D) The lemurs of Madagascar are nocturnal or diurnal creatures that have large eyes, small bodies, and are known for their unique vocalizations.
This is the BEST summary for the passage because it includes all of the main points the author makes about the lemurs. The passage begins by stating where lemurs live, describes their appearance, identifies them as nocturnal or diurnal, and lastly discusses the noises they make. Option C is incorrect because it doesn't even mention lemurs. While lemurs are a type of primate, there are many other primates that would also be included. Options A and B are too narrow and leave out key information.
