Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

It is a Compound sentence.

Explanation:

• A compound sentence is one that has at least two separate clauses that are connected by a comma, semicolon, or conjunction.
• A compound sentence does not contain any dependent clauses.

Examples:

1. I'll have a week in Berlin, or I'll go to Munich for three days.
2. You can pay online; we accept all major payment options.
3. Little Women is my favourite film; however, I've only seen it once.

• The following are illustrative steps of coordinating clauses:

1. Walk quickly.

    2. You will not overtake him.

• The above two sentences are used in combination with the coordinating conjunction 'else'.
• Therefore, the sentence Walk quickly, else you will not overtake him is a compound sentence because it has two independent clauses.
