Answer:
Compound sentence.
Explanation:
A compound sentence is a sentence that contains two or more independent clauses. Independent clauses are those words that can stand on their own as a full sentence and needs no dependent or other words to complete. Also, compound sentences using coordinating conjunctions to join the two independent clauses.
In the given sentence, there are two independent clauses separated by a semicolon.
Now, semicolons are used in place of conjunctions if the two sentences are related or close to each other. This means that we can replace conjunctions such as "like" or "and" in the sentence.
Likewise, the given sentence used the semicolon to connect the two independent clauses, making it a compound sentence.
The <u>sentence cannot be a simple sentence as a simple sentence has only one subject and a verb</u>.
And it <u>cannot be a complex sentence as complex sentences contain an independent and dependent clause</u>. And <u>we have no dependent clause in the given sentence.</u>
Thus, the correct answer is a compound sentence.
