The only necessary parts of a sentence are the subject and verb, for example, "Tom ate", except in commands in which the subject can be left out, for example, "Sit down". However there are many other options that you can add in, including prepositional phrases and clauses ("in the kitchen"), adjectival phrases and clauses ("who doesn't have a dining room"), adverbial phrases and clauses ("because he was tired") and noun phrases and clauses ("where else to sit"). So the sentence, "Tom, who doesn't have a dining room, ate in the kitchen because he was tired and didn't know where else to sit" has both a subject and verb and many other clauses.

In fact a subject may not be necessary even where the mood is not imperative. Impersonal verbs (typically found in statements about the weather) do not have a subject. For example, in the sentence "It is raining", the word "it" is not technically a subject. The three words together constitute a verb.
