Well, well, well! Let's have some fun identifying those independent clauses!
1. If we are going to make it to the movie on time, we really need to leave right now.
The independent clause is D. We really need to leave right now. The other options, well, they're just part of the clause, but they can't stand alone.
2. My sister has a smile that lights up the room.
The independent clause is B. My sister has a smile. The other options, they're just dependent clauses or phrases that need a little something more to be independent.
I hope that brings a smile to your face!
