Can you explain me what is a independent and dependent clauses

An independent clause is a phrase that can stand alone like "The boy threw the ball." A dependent clause cannot stand alone, like "Because he was angry"

Ex: In this. what is a dep and ind. Moving quickly up the field, roberto was in a position to score

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Moving quickly up the field-dependent, because it cannot be its own sentence Roberto was in a position to score-independent
