Answer: Complex sentence

Step-by-step explanation:

It consists of an independent clause ("Moss often hangs from the branches of the bald cypress") and a dependent (subordinate) clause ("a tree that grows in swamps in the South"). The dependent clause cannot stand alone as a complete thought and relies on the independent clause to provide context and meaning.
