Explanation: An independent clause is a sentence that have complete meaning on its own. A dependent clause is the contrary, a phrase or sentence that doesn't have meaning on its own. In the given options, the independent clauses are options B, C and D because they have subject, verb and predicate that give them complete meaning. Option A is a conditional that is lacking a part and option D uses "while" but doesn't give the two actions.
