Hi,

Single roles contain authorization data.Say if you have some single role to create a object, you can edit ,create or delete that object based on authorization data defined.

Composite roles consist of single roles. Users who are assigned a composite role are automatically assigned the associated single roles during the compare. Composite roles do not themselves contain authorization data.

Setting up composite roles are useful for example if some of your staff need authorization for several roles. You can create a composite role and assign it to the users instead of putting each user in each required single role.

Shell roles are standard roles provided by SAP.Check for more details.
