Question

Identify the underline part.
When driving home from spring break, Maria saw a tornado touch down.

  1. Dependent clauses
  2. Independent clauses
  3. Not a clause.

hintHint:

  • A Dependent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and verb but does not express a complete thought. A dependent clause cannot be a sentence. A dependent clause generally starts with dependent marker words like - after, although, because etc.

The correct answer is: Not a clause.


    Solution : Option (a) Dependent Clause
    Here in the sentence ,"When driving home from spring break, Maria saw a tornado touch down" , just the part "When driving home from spring break" does not clears the thought of statement. An extra information about "what happened while driving home from spring break" is required to complete the sentence. So, dependent clause.
