Question

are these complete sentences, or is one of them a fragment? after the hike, jade hernandez was thinking. that the path may have been lined with poison oak. complete sentences fragment

Explanation:

A complete sentence has a subject and a predicate and expresses a complete thought. The first part "After the hike, Jade Hernandez was thinking" is a complete sentence. The second part "That the path may have been lined with poison oak" is a fragment because it is a dependent clause (a subordinate clause starting with "that") and does not express a complete thought on its own. It needs to be attached to an independent clause (e.g., "Jade Hernandez was thinking that the path may have been lined with poison oak").

Answer:

Fragment
