PLEASE HELP???

PRACTICE: INDEPENDENT AND SUBORDINATE CLAUSES
Determine whether the boldfaced group of words is an independent, a subordi-
nate, or a relative clause.
1. Jason took a nap before he left for his friend's house.
2. You can keep your privileges as long as we continue to see progress.
3. Hannah wasn't feeling well, which Dad noticed immediately.
4. Although you may disagree, I still say Sheila is the best person for the
job.
5. There would be less tension between them if they could just see eye to
eye.
6. I'm bringing my homework along even though we don't plan to stay
long.
7. Golam, whom I've never met before, seemed like a pretty nice guy.
8. In order that we may be respectful of the presenters, please turn off your
cell phones.
9. I knew this was going to be an exciting game when Andrew took his first
swing.
10. Margaret, whose earrings I borrowed last week, told her dad that she
was tired and wanted to home.
