Final answer:

Commas are needed in the examples to separate independent clauses or items in a list.

Step-by-step explanation:

A coordinating conjunction is a conjunction that connects words, phrases, and clauses that are coordinate, or equal to each other.

In each sentence, a comma is needed to separate two independent clauses or to separate items in a list.

Here are the corrected sentences:

  1. She usually eats vegetables, because she wants to be healthy.
  2. John opens the door, and they begin to come in.
  3. We pray heartedly, and the typhoon stopped.
  4. The crew smiled at us, when she saw us coming.
  5. The rainy season is coming, so I need to buy new supplies.
  6. I want to go to the market, but I don’t have a ride.
  7. You need to fill the container, unless you need an extra companion.
  8. I’ll watch TV, while I’ll eat my lunch.
  9. I love mango juice, but I do not eat mango fruit.
  10. I told them that I’m their new adviser.
