Choose the sentence with standard punctuation. Remember that clauses have a subject and a verb. Compound sentences use a coordinating conjunction (for, and, not, but, or, yet, so) to join independent clauses. Complex sentences have one independent clause and at least one dependent clause (with a subordinating conjunction).
