Leaves not so subdivided are called "simple."A leaf that is divided into two or more leaflets, each of which may look like a complete leaf but which lacks buds. Compound leaves may have leaflets arranged along an axis like the rays of a feather or radiating from a common point like the fingers on a hand.
