Explanation:

A conjunction is a word that joins words, phrases, clauses or sentences. There are three types of conjunctions: coordinating, correlative, or subordinating.

Coordinating conjunctions join words, phrases or clauses which have similar grammatical structure (1; 2). On the contrary, subordinating conjunctions join a subordinate (dependent clause) to a main (independent clause). This is the case of 3; 4; 5; 6; 8 and 9.  Finally, correlative conjunctions are paired words since they join words, phrases or clauses which have a reciprocal or complementary relationship (4; 7).

As regards the second part of the question, an interjection is a word or phrase which is grammatically independent fron the words around it, and expresses feeling rather than meaning. As you can see (10; 12; 13 & 14), the interjections in the sentences are all set off with commas from the rest of the sentences. The word following the comma shall not begin with a capital letter because the interjection and this word are part of the same sentence.

2 Andrews and (coordinating) McMillan were the first two engineers at the company.
