Question

Genetic modifications makes pest-resistant corn, but genetically modified corn may be unhealthy.

What kind of sentence is this?

Answer 1

hey mate here is your answer ❤️❤️

The sentence above is a compound sentence.

explanation

A compound sentence joins two or more independent clauses with a coordinator such as and, but, for, or a semi-colon. Independent clauses are two phrases that can stand alone as a sentence because they represent a complete thought. They do not depend upon one another, but tie together similar ideas.

In the sentence above, the independent clauses have been joined by the coordinator but.

1) Genetic modification makes pest-resistant corn (independent clause I)

2) But genetically modified corn may be unhealthy. (independent clause II)
