identify the sentence type.

independent clause
complex sentence
compound sentence
compound-complex sentence

The correct answer is option B) complex sentence

Explanation:

Complex sentences are formed by an independant sentence and a dependant sentence. A dependant sentence does not have meaning on its own and needs another part to make a complete meaning. An independant sentence can stand on its own.

In this case, the dependant clause is "When the fashion critics witness the unveiling of the designer's latest line of shoes", and the independant clause is "they will shower her with much deserved praise." They are usually separated by a comma.

Complex Sentence

Further Explanation:

Complex sentences are known to be the fascinating components of the English language and when these sentences are used properly, these add depth and feel to the sentence. Complex sentences contain an Independent clause with at least one dependent clause.  An Independent clause can form a sentence by itself and is a sentence itself if one phrase. Even though a dependent clause contains a verb and a subject, it cannot stand alone. Complex sentences are very closely related to compound sentences and there is only one difference between a complex sentence and a compound sentence is that compound sentence contains two independent clauses. One example of complex sentences is:- Wherever you go, You can always find beauty.  

The bold and underlined part of the above examples is examples of complex sentences.
