Explanation

A compound sentence is a sentence that has two independent clauses which mean each one has a subject, verb, and complement, and express a complete idea. Additionally, compound sentences are linked by a semicolon, comma or conjunction such as and, for, or, yet, so or but. In the case of the second option, there are two independent clauses (subject, verb, and complement) that express a complete idea, joined by the conjunction but.
