A simple sentence consists of only one clause. A compound sentence consists of two or more independent clauses. A complex sentence has at least one independent clause plus at least one dependent clause. A set of words with no independent clause may be an incomplete sentence, also called a sentence fragment.

Examples of a compound complex sentence:

Kate doesn't like cartoons because they are loud, so she doesn't watch them.The dog started barking so the cat ran away and I couldn't keep up, so I stopped.She likes to sleep in but she can get up early if she has work.

compound sentence

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

simple sentence

complex sentence

A Complex Sentence. A complex sentence has an independent clause and at least one dependent clause. For example: The human brain never stops working until you stand up to speak in public.

answer: i would say he was very determined and persistent in overcoming obstacles.

explanation: "the magician of menlo park" as he was called, liked to tell an incident that happened when he was 8 years old and came back home crying after attending school for three months because his teacher called him "sterile and unproductive". from nowadays perspective, we can say that thomas alva edison was one of the most persistent and determined man that has ever existed. when edison was 14, he contracted scarlet fever. the effect of the fever, as well as a blow to the head by an angry train conductor, caused edison to become completely deaf in his left ear, and 80-percent deaf in the other. so as you can see he had to struggle to not so many minor issues but he always succeeded.
