Explanation:

An independent clause is a group of words that has a subject and predicate but can make complete sense on their own.

EXAMPLE of an independent clause is "He opened the door"

EXAMPLE of a dependent clause is "when he heard the knock"

"He opened the door" can stand on its own and make perfect sense and can be ended with a period.

"when he heard the knock" is dependent and isn't usually ended with a period when standing alone.

Putting the clauses together, we have, "He opened the door when he heard the knock. " and this is a complex sentence.

1. b

2. a deadly disease

4. at the same time

5. a) true

b) true

c)false?

d)false?

7. para.1 = c

para.2 = d

para.3 = f

para.4= b

para.5= e

para.6 = a
