Explanation:

COMPOUND SENTENCE:  When two independent clauses are combined together using a coordinating conjunction or a semicolon, the sentence becomes a COMPOUND SENTENCE.  

Coordinating Conjunctions:  For, And, Nor, But, Or, Yet, So

FOR EXAMPLE:  Mary like to sing.

                               She likes to dance.

These are two simple sentences.  We can combine the two sentences either using a coordinating conjunction or a semicolon making it a compound sentence .

Compound Sentence 1:  Mary likes to sing AND she likes to dance.  (combined the sentence using coordinating conjunction, AND)

Compound Sentence 2:  Mary likes to sing; she likes to dance.

COMPLEX SENTENCE:  When one independent clause is combined with one dependent clause using a subordinate conjunction, the sentence becomes a COMPLEX SENTENCE.

Subordinating conjunctions:  Although, because, while etc.

FOR EXAMPLE:  Although I was late for the exam, the examiner allowed me in.

“the examiner allowed me in” is an independent clause  

“Although I was late for the exam” is dependent clause, i.e. the sentence is not complete, we need more information to complete it.

FOR EXAMPLE:  ALTHOUGH I was late for the exam, the examiner allowed me in.
