Since a compound sentence consists of at least two independent clauses usually connected with a conjunction, the correct answer is D. Because there are two independent clauses: 1. Liberty Island is a small, uninhabited island, + but + 2. it is best known as the location of the Statue of Liberty. It is the only correctly written compound sentence, because of BUT.
