Differences between compound and complex sentences in English language with example?
A compound sentence is made using conjunctions such as and, but, so, or and then.
For example,
He ate a banana and drank some juice.
Usually, these sentences have to have two clauses. The two clauses are in bold in the sentence above.
A complex sentence is made without using the words and, but, so, or and then. It also has two clauses, which are in bold in the sentence below.
He grew very pale as he had hit a policeman.
It is my understanding that your first example, "He ate a banana and drank some juice" is not a compound sentence because it is not two independent clauses. There is no subject in the second clause. Your example is a simple sentence with a compound predicate. A compound sentence has two independent clauses (subject and predicate) joined by the conjunctions for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so. (Helpful hint: The first letter of each of the coordinators spells FANBOYS). A comma would be used in the compound sentence. Ex. He ate a banana, and she drank some juice. A complex sentence using different conjunctions. There is often a cause/effect relationship in complex sentences, but not always. Ex. My mother called the doctor because I was ill. If the conjunctive phrase is used at the beginning of the sentence use a comma. Ex. Because I was ill, my mother called doctor.
If I'm in error, I'd love further information......Thanks!

Compound Sentence consists of more than one independent clause joined together with a co-ordinating conjunctions. Your right...FANBOYS...for, and, nor,but,or,yet,so
