Answer 6

One question per post, please.

Answer 7

ok so in an independent clause, you have a complete thought. In a subordinate clause, you have a subordinate conjunction like when or that or because.

So in the underlined portion of the sentence, you do not have a complete thought.

take out the rest of the sentence, as you do not need it to answer the question:

When the water boils

ask yourself "Is this a complete sentence?"

not in this case, so it would also be a subordinate clause.
