Tenses in a sentence

Hello, i've searched about this, but i'm still puzzled.

It seems like a sentence can contain multiple verb forms, Such as: i chose bread but an apple is more appropriate or i will be going home. Altough it can have verb forms, is the whole sentence a tense? or there could be more than one tense but seperated by clauses? Emotion: hmm ( or even a phrase?!)

Hi, A sentence often contains a variety of tenses. Here's a very simple example. Yesterday I phoned Tom and tomorrow I will phone Mary.
