Explanation:

Sentence  B is a compound-complex sentence. A compound-complex sentence is a compound sentence with a dependent clause.

Dependent clauses, as opposed to independent clauses, fail to stand on their own because they are not complete sentences, they do not represent a complete idea (see 1). (1) cannot stand on its own because it does not represent a complete thought, it depends on a main clause to complete its meaning.
