The correct explanation is: The conjunction yet is joining two independent clauses.
In the sentence "I went to bed early last night, yet I woke up tired this morning," the word "yet" connects two independent clauses (complete sentences) that contrast with each other. The first clause states a positive action (going to bed early), while the second clause presents an unexpected outcome (waking up tired).
