We can match each grammatical term with the correct definition having in mind that clauses contain a subject and a predicate, as further explained below.

Independent clause - A) Contains a subject and a verb and can stand alone as a complete thought; in other words, a simple sentence.

Subordinate clause -  D) Contains a subject and a verb but cannot stand alone as a complete thought; must be joined using a comma and a subordinating conjunction.

Compound sentence -  B) Contains two independent clauses connected by a conjunction.

Complex sentence -  C) Contains an independent clause and a subordinate clause connected by a subordinating conjunction.

What is a clause?

A clause is a group of words that contains a subject and a predicate. We say we have an independent clause when it can stand alone as a complete thought, without the need for another clause with more information.

We have a dependent or subordinate clause when it does not convey a complete thought. A subordinate clause needs another clause to complete its meaning - a main clause.

We a compound sentence when we join two independent clauses with a coordinating conjunction. On the other hand, we have a complex sentence when we join an independent clause and a subordinate one with a subordinating conjunction.

With the information above in mind, we can conclude that the answer provided is correct.
