Answer 5

A simple sentence has the most basic elements that make it a sentence: a subject, a verb, and a completed thought

A compound sentence is a sentence that has at least two independent clauses joined by a comma, semicolon or conjunction.

A complex sentence is a sentence that contains an independent clause and one or more dependent clauses. An independent clause can stand alone as a sentence, but a dependent clause even though it has a subject and a verb cannot stand alone.

A complex sentence has one independent clause and at least one dependent clause. This means that the clauses are not equal, they use a co-ordinating conjunction that changes the rank of one or more of the clauses to make it less equal.
