The correct answer is B. Fused Sentence

A fused sentence is an incorrect and poorly constructed sentence where the independent clauses in the sentence have no punctuation between them. Fused sentences can be corrected by separating the independent clauses with a semi-colon, comma or a word. An example of a fused sentence is: "I ran late to work Joan did too."

A fused sentence has two or more independent clauses without any punctuation.

A fused sentence does not have a correct sentence structure, as there is more than one independent clause, and there is no punctuation that separates them. The correct punctuation that might be used is separated by a semicolon, comma or a word. To be grammatically correct, sentences need to convey a specific meaning to its readers. However, all words have to be arranged within the sentence in a sequence so that all words are in agreement with each other. The most important feature of a fused sentence is the presence of more than an independent clause, which means a group of sequentially arranged words within a sentence that convey a particular meaning itself. Independent clauses do not depend on a sentence to have their meaning expressed.

Further Explanation:

In English Grammar, the fused sentence is known by another terminology, called the run-on. They are so named as there are more than one independent clauses within the sentence, and they are not separated. A sentence should not have more than one main clause, as it contains one entire idea in itself, therefore it is grammatically correct to separate multiple clauses with punctuation. However, there are several tricks available for fixing a fused sentence without altering the structure of the sentence, or without changing the meaning. The main clauses of the sentence can be separated, using a full stop and beginning the next part of the sentence with a Capital letter. In this case, the sentence gets divided into two parts. Suitable coordinating conjunction and appropriate punctuation might also be used depending on the sentence.
