Question

in which sentence are the italicized words a dependent clause?

A. She became angry, but she would not leave without her brother.
B. She wanted to leave early, or she wanted to stay overnight
C. The diving board broke when she jumped into the pool
D. She went swimming, and her brother went boating

Answer 1

The answer is C according to me
This is the most suitable answer because in option C the second clause is dependent on the first one to complete its meaning

If it is incorrect then pls inform me

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is C.

The diving board broke when she jumped into the pool.

This is one of the part of the sentences when we find a dependent clause.

The dependent clause is ‘when she jumped into the pool’.

The definition of a dependent clause says that it is a group of words with a subject and a verb.

It does not express a complete thought so it cannot be considered a sentence and it cannot stand alone.
