Answer: A. Sumi panicked when she couldn’t meet her deadline.

D. When her roommates were being loud, Lisa went to the library.

Step-by-step explanation:

An adverbial clause is referred to as a dependent clause which performs the function of an adverb. This simply means that an adverbial clause modifies or qualifies a verb, or an adjective.

"When" as used in options A and D is an adverbial clause of time. It shows when something happens.
