Which sentence type shows a relationship between two or more ideas of equal importance and provides at least one additional detail about one or both ideas simple simple - no response given compound compound - incorrect complex complex - no response given compound-complex
compound-complex
why is it that
I'm sorry, could you please provide more context or clarify your question?
why is it compound-complex
A compound-complex sentence is a sentence that contains at least two independent clauses and one or more dependent clauses. In the sentence type mentioned "shows a relationship between two or more ideas of equal importance and provides at least one additional detail about one or both ideas," there are multiple ideas being related that are of equal importance, which is represented by the independent clauses. Additionally, an additional detail is provided about one or both ideas, which is represented by the dependent clause. This complexity in structure is what categorizes it as a compound-complex sentence.
if it was compound why would it be it
My apologies for the confusion in my responses earlier. If the sentence type shows a relationship between two or more ideas of equal importance, but does not necessarily provide an additional detail, it would fall under a compound sentence. In a compound sentence, independent clauses are joined by coordinating conjunctions, so each clause carries equal weight and importance. Each clause can stand alone as a complete sentence.
Thank you for pointing that out, and I appreciate your patience.
