Answer: Dependent clause

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent clauses are able to stand alone. Like an independent person, they support their selves. They do not need to rely on others.

Dependent clauses need support to make sense. Like a child. You can not pay bills as a child, you are dependent to your mother. You need your mother for a house and food. These clauses also start with subordinating conjunctions "while" "that" "unless"
