Answer - The open spaces and opportunities for independence appealed to many.

In the sentence above, the individual subjects of the original two sentences (i, e "The open spaces" and " The opportunities for independence") are combined to give a compound subject. They are joined by the coordinating conjunction, "and".

Other coordinating conjunctions that can be used in forming a compound subject are: "or", "neither", and "nor".
