The independent clause in the given sentence is "This is the house" while the dependent clause is "where my father was born".
Explanation:
- In the given sentence, "this is the house" is a complete sentence and is expressing its thought so it is an independent clause.
- Whereas, "where my father was born" is incomplete and needs the first clause to complete its meaning so it is a dependent clause.
