Writeacher
No, not D.

Here are some ideas for you:
Simple sentence = 1 independent clause
Compound sentence = 2 independent clauses joined with semicolon or a comma and a coordinating conjunction
Complex sentence = 1 independent clause + at least 1 dependent clause
Compound-complex sentence = Compound sentence + at least 1 dependent clause.
