Explanation:

Answer 2

"Because I had to take a calligraphy class," is the clause here. It is a subordinate clause.

• A clause is a sentence that contains a subject and a finite verb.
• There are mainly three types of clauses, Independent clause, subordinate clause, and co-ordinate clause.
• Independent clauses have a separate meaning and can be used independently and would still form a meaning.
• A subordinate clause doesn't have an independent meaning. It is dependent upon other parts to form a meaning.
• Subordinate clauses have a few other subtypes like Noun Clauses, Adjective Clauses, and Adverbial Clauses.
• Co-ordinate clauses contain two principal clauses joined with the help of conjunctions like and, but, or, etc.
• Here, the first part of the sentence, 'Because I had to take a calligraphy class', forms no meaning and is dependent upon the second part of the sentence.
• Thus, it is a subordinate clause.
