Answer:

1.) "Gene calculates the area of the room." This is an independent clause

2.) "If he measures and calculates correctly." This is a dependent clause

3.) "Because the rain was so heavy." This is a dependent clause

4.) "Daisy drove the yellow car home." This is an independent clause

Step-by-step explanation:

An independent clause is a group of words that can stand on its own as a sentence: it has a subject, a verb, and is a complete thought.

A dependent clause does not express a complete thought and cannot stand on its own as a sentence.
