    A.

    Connecting a dependent clause to an independent, related one will form a complex sentence.

    The correct answer is A. connect it to the sentence before or after it.

    A dependent clause fragment is something incomplete, as the name itself says. This means that it needs to be a part of a larger, independent sentence, in order to be complete and make sense. If you combine it with a sentence before/after it, you will create a complex sentence that is grammatically correct.

    For example: because it started raining

    On its own, it is a fragment and has no meaning. But if you combine it with:

    We had to go back

    Then it will be a proper sentence.
