I believe the correct answer here is B. Phrases, appositives, and dependent clauses because in Choice A, independent clauses is in the list. An independent clause can act as a sentence, which is the opposite of subordination. Subordination generally creates dependent clauses and appositives, but can sometimes generate phrases.
