1. Alec decided to run laps before practice. Phrase or clause ?

A clause contains both a verb and a subject. In this sentence, there is a verb and a subject, so it is a clause

("Alec decided" is a phrase, since it does not make sense on its own, but the rest of the sentence support the meaning of the phrase, making it a clause)
