Answer 2

The element necessary to complete the sentence above is D) independent clause.
You already have a subject (I) and a predicate (save), so these two are not needed, nor is a prepositional phrase. But you need an independent clause, because this is a dependent clause which cannot stand on its own. For example:
If I save enough money, I will buy a car.
