compound sentences mean that it has a subject and action

complex is when there more than one subject or action

simple is when there is either a subject or an action not both

Answer:

Keizurae, “Do what you can, with what you have, where you are.” – Theodore Roosevelt.

Explanation:

Simple Sentence: Keizurae ate dinner. This is a simple sentence. There is one subject (Keizurae) and one verb a.k.a predicate (ate)

Complex Sentence: Although Keizurae's friends begged, Keizurae chose not to go to the reunion. This is a complex sentence. There is more than one subject (Keizurae and friends) and more than one predicate (begged and chose)

Compound Sentence: Keizurae likes to watch cartoons, and is going to watch them tonight. This is a compound sentence. One sentence is a complete thought (Keizurae likes to watch cartoons). One is not complete (and is going to watch them tonight). We call these independent and dependent sentences. When an independent and dependent sentence is connected by a conjunction, it is called a compound sentence.
