Explanation:

When a sentence has comma splices and fused sentence, it means that two independent clauses are inappropriately joined.

A comma splice (also known as "comma fault") is the use of a comma to merge two independent clauses. It conveys an informal mood, especially in literary writing. For example,  "I got to the gym, Mark was there", "I think she's heartbroken, she cries a lot", "we'd love to go to Paris, it'd be romantic", etc.

A fused sentence is when a writer connects two main clauses without punctuation. For example, "It was 8:00pm Sandra rushed to catch the bus", George vowed to protect his daughter all the while he was lazing about, etc.
