Can you help me to identify whether the sentence type is simple, compound, complex, or compound-complex.
1. Poland's Wielicaka salt mine, which has been in use since the thirteenth century, contains many beautiful sculptures carved from the salt by generations of miners.
2. Large amounts of fresh water pouring into the ocean from flooded rivers can hurt some kinds of sea life, especially shellfish.
3. Many well-known actors, such as Peter Coyote and Amy Madigan, narrate documentaries for PBS but do not appear on camera.
4. Nurseries that wholesale Christmas trees have discovered a way to increase their off-season income.

1. Poland's Wielicaka salt mine, (which has been in use since the thirteenth century,) contains many beautiful sculptures carved from the salt by generations of miners.
COMPLEX/ Which is a relative pronoun indicating a dependent clause.
2. Large amounts of fresh water pouring into the ocean from flooded rivers can hurt some kinds of sea life, especially shellfish.
SIMPLE/ only one subject and verb not independent clauses
3. Many well-known actors, such as Peter Coyote and Amy Madigan, narrate documentaries for PBS but do not appear on camera.
Complex
This sentence can not be a compound complex sentence because "but" although a coordinating conjuction starts what appears to be an independent clause however, both verbs "narrate" and "do appear" share the same subjects.
4. Nurseries that wholesale Christmas trees have discovered a way to increase their off-season income.
Complex

2 is simple
I'm not finishing because you shrieked (written form) about 10 points. I do not answer for points. It's insulting to say that.
Sorry

whats my call? reason the devil continually lies and the angel continually tells the certainty. So the angel will provide u ur call and the devil provide you somebody elses. there are distinctive inquiries to ask. yet it particularly is problematical.
