Explanation:

A complex sentence can be explained as type of sentence which posses an independent clause and also posses one or more dependent clauses. An independent clause is one that can stand on it's own as a sentence, while but dependent clause can not stand on it's own, even though it posses a subject as well as a verb. The two clauses are usually joined together with a "subordinating conjunction" . Example of surbordinating conjuction are; since, until as well as when.

Let us analyse the given sentences as the independent clause and The dependent clause;

A) Jake complimented Linda after she made her speech.

✓independent clause: Jake complimented Linda

✓dependent clause: she made her speech.

B) As I waited for my appointment, I read a magazine

✓independent clause : I read a magazine

✓dependent clause :As I waited for my appointment

C) Those who don't like to get wet should always carry an umbrella

✓independent clause :always carry an umbrella

✓dependent clause :Those who don't like to get wet

Therefore, only option "D" is not a complex sentence since there is no "subordinating conjunction" that joined the sentences and there are

many independent clause present.

there on the beach was a struggling turtle.   around its bright green neck was a loop of soda can rings.   in order to the planet, i have made a few changes to my life.   the first change is reducing the number of straws used. the second change was to recycle.   finally, i have worked hard to clean up litter.   it is important to clean our ocean.

you may not think straws have a large impact but they do.   imagine for every straw you sip out of a poor, , adorable turtle is being harmed.   one way i chipped in to is by using metal straws.   these straws are reusable and inexpensive.   another change is simply turning down straws.   by refusing a straw, i’m the turtles one drink at a time.  

however, the ocean just doesn't have turtles.   there are lots of creatures that live there and are harmed by all the litter.   to prevent litter from growing it’s important to recycle.   for me, i have started to buy most goods that are made out of recycled material.   pura vidas, chacos, purses, and too many other items to even count.   plus, when you buy those products they give money to charities.   not only am i the environment, but i’m also feeling better about my self.   finally, i have worked hard to clean up litter.   it is important to clean our ocean.
