It is C a complex sentence.

Explanation:

a) A complex sentence is one that has at least one independent clause and one dependent clause.  Such sentences are joined by subordinating conjunctions.  An example is the sentence: Her tears runs uncontrollably when she gets angry.

b) An independent clause is a clause that has a subject and a predicate and forms a complete thought.  Example: Her tears runs dry.  A dependent clause, generally, give more information and cannot stand on its own. Example: ...when I saw her.

b) A compound sentence is a sentence that has at least two independent clauses joined by a comma, semicolon, or coordinating conjunction.  An example of a compound sentence is, 'This street is too long, and our family house is located at the extreme.

c)  A compound-complex sentence is a sentence that has at least one dependent clause and at least two independent clauses.  Though, I prefer paper to audio books, I recently rented an audio novel, and I gained a lot of insight listening.

d) A simple sentence is a sentence with one independent clause.  An independent clause has a subject and a predicate and makes complete sense.
