Respuesta :

D. The independent clause is after a "," and does not rely on the sentence.

Answer:

The correct answer is letter D

Explanation:

An independent clause is one that can be a sentence by itself, meaning that it expresses a complete idea; it doesn't have to be attached to another sentence and it also has a subject and a predicate. Letter D says "Because he was ill, he stayed home from school." The independent clause stands after the coma, while he is the subject and stayed home the predicate. It also represents a complete though (it explains why he did the action) and can stand by itself.
