Yes.
Why?
Because added an object, clearly tells
something and its make complete sense. Obviously, it is a completed simple

sentence with a specific word order. At the beginning put the subject,
second verb and third object, e.g:

2 together.

Just we add and
Once you use conjunctions; remove the full
stop in the first sentence, e.g.
