B.) It contains two or more simple sentences.

D.) It includes conjunctions such as for, and, nor, but, or, yet, and so.

Explanation:

A compound sentence contains at least two independent clauses separated by a comma and linked by a coordinating conjunction.

An independent clause is a clause that has a subject, a verb and can stand alone as a sentence. (answer choice B)

Coordinating conjunctions are for, and, nor, but, or, yet, and so. (answer choice D)
