What is a complete sentence?

He walks.
I know that the above sentence is a complete sentence, but how? It doesn't have a prepositional phrase/adverbial phrase. It's not telling about where he walks,e.g, in a park, in his terrace, or in somewhere else.
Moreover, What about these:
'He heard', 'He loves' , and 'He takes'?
