Thanks Ms.Sue
Mrs.Sue kinda sus you already answer this question but gave a different answer..... make it make sense
like-
So would it be a simple sentence?
You're welcome.
To determine the correct answer, we need to understand the different types of sentences.
A simple sentence consists of one independent clause, which contains a subject and a predicate and expresses a complete thought. Examples include "I went to the store."
A compound sentence consists of two or more independent clauses, which can stand alone as separate sentences. These independent clauses are typically joined by a coordinating conjunction such as "and," "but," or "or." An example of a compound sentence is "I went to the store, and my friend went to the park."
A complex sentence consists of one independent clause and at least one dependent clause, which cannot stand alone as a complete sentence. The dependent clause is joined to the independent clause by a subordinating conjunction. An example of a complex sentence is "While I was studying, my friend called me."
A compound-complex sentence consists of two or more independent clauses and at least one dependent clause. It combines the features of both compound and complex sentences. An example of a compound-complex sentence is "I went to the store, and my friend went to the park while I was studying."
Looking back at the given sentence: "The senior class took a trip to Washington, D.C. and Annapolis for their research project."
We can see that it has one independent clause: "The senior class took a trip to Washington, D.C. and Annapolis."
There are no dependent clauses in the sentence.
Based on this analysis, we can conclude that the sentence is a compound sentence (option B). Therefore, the correct answer is B.
Yes, it's a simple sentence. The subject and verb are
