-Simple
-Compound
-Complex
-Compound-Complex

Answer 1

Complex

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a dependent clause in the beginning, and after the comma there is no conjunction (F.A.N.B.O.Y.S), and the second part is an independent clause. The complex sentence is 'dependent, independent'. You're welcome.
