Answer:

Mom wouldn't let me go to the party

This is an independent clause because it can be a complete sentence by itself

until my room was cleaned, cannot be a complete sentence.

Step-by-step explanation:

An independent clause is a sentence. Jim studied in the Sweet Shop for his chemistry quiz.

Dependent Clause. 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.
