What are dependent clauses?

A dependent clause:

• Is a group of words that include a subject and a verb.

• Begins with a subordinating conjunction, such as "after" or "when".

• Does not express a complete thought on its own.

• Cannot stand alone as a sentence, but needs a main clause instead.

With the information above in mind, we select option A for number 1 and D for number 2 in the first part. For the second part, we can select option A for number 1 and C for number 2.

All the options chosen begin with subordinating conjunctions - "after", "when", "whose" and "who".
