Simple sentence.
Subordinate clauseA subordinate (or dependent) clause is a clause that needs another clause. Unlike independent clauses it cannot stand alone. The word because is usually a good indicator of a subordinate clause.
The sentence type that includes both a subordinate clause and an independent clause would be a complex sentence. You would need to insert a conjunction to separate the two clauses for the sentence to be grammatically correct.
A simple sentence
main verb in the independent clause. Adverbial clauses always start with a subordinating conjunction and must connect to an independent clause to make sense. For example: Even if I take the train, I still might be late to my appointment
Subordinate and independent clauses can be use in the following sentence: As it is quite cloudy today, we may have a downpour. In the sentence, 'As it is quite cloudy today' is a subordinate clause as it cannot stand alone, and 'we may have a downpour' is an independent clause which can stand on its own.
Complex SentenceProof?when what is a complex sentence google itself defined it as:A sentence containing a subordinate clause or clauses.that is your answer but it doesn't mention an independent clause this is because all sentences have an independent clause since the subordinate(dependent) clauses need something to depend on especially when it is only one subordinate clause. So it has one independent clause with one or more subordinate clause or clauses.
Commas are used differently when a clause is an independent clauses or if the clause is a dependent/subordinate clauses.
An Independent clause is independent or main clause expresses a complete thought and can stand by itself as a sentence. An Subordinate clause is a subordinate (or dependent) clause does not express a complete thought and cannot stand by itself as a complete sentence.
This question is somewhat ambiguously phrased, because independent and dependent clauses are mutually exclusive categories, and a clause that is introduced by a subordinate conjunction is not independent by definition. However, substituting a coordinating conjunction in a independent clause by a subordinate conjunction can convert an initially independent clause into a dependent clause.
Actually, a subordinating conjunction is a word that joins a dependent clause to an independent clause. It shows the relationship between the two clauses and makes the dependent clause subordinate to the independent clause.

It can't be a run-on. It's a single independent clause. Sentences can have 2 independent clauses or subordinate clauses too.
A subordinating conjunction is used to connect independent and dependent clauses together. These conjunctions show the relationship between the clauses, such as cause and effect or time sequence. Examples include "because," "although," and "when."
This is largely a matter of definition. Some restrict the term "dependent" clause to clauses that include relative pronouns, but most include all subordinate clauses, which could be defined as clauses that because of the presence in the clause of a relative pronoun or a subordinating conjunction or the absence in the clause of any "active" verb (i.e., a verb that is not an infinitive, gerund, or participle) can only properly be used in a sentence that also includes a clause not subject to any of these characteristics of a subordinate clause and therefore is termed and "independent". Note that a subordinate clause may be included in an independent clause.
You make a complex sentence when you have both a dependent clause along with an independent clause.
