what type of sentence is this?
○ a simple sentence
○ a complex sentence
○ a compound sentence
○ a compound - complex sentence

Explanation:

A complex sentence has one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. The sentence "When I go rock climbing, I prefer climbing in landscapes that present a challenge" has an independent clause ("I prefer climbing in landscapes that present a challenge") and two dependent clauses: "When I go rock climbing" (adverbial dependent clause) and "that present a challenge" (adjectival dependent clause). A simple sentence has only one independent clause, a compound sentence has two or more independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction, and a compound - complex sentence has two or more independent clauses and at least one dependent clause. So this is a complex sentence.

Answer:

B. a complex sentence
