Answer:

Lian got his license because he turned 16.

We rented a movie last night because we were bored.

Lena got a letter from Clemson University because she was accepted.

Please set the table because we're having dinner.

Explanation: A subordinate clause comes after the independent part of the sentence to add more detail. The dependent clause (subordinate) wouldn't make sense by itself.
