"He moved" is the independent clause because it can stand alone as a complete sentence. "But then" is a subordinating conjunction that introduces the dependent clause which adds more information about the action in the independent clause.

That is not actually a complete sentence. It is a dependent clause because it cannot stand alone. If you were to take off the subordinating conjunction "when," it could stand alone and would a sentence. The simple subject in that dependent clause is field.
Is this a CLAUSE Sam Bob and all the guys?
Yes, "Sam, Bob, and all the guys" is a clause because it contains a subject ("Sam, Bob, and all the guys") and a verb ("is"). This clause could function as an independent clause or as part of a larger sentence.
What best describes how you could fix a sentence fragment that is a subordinate clause?
To fix a sentence fragment that is a subordinate clause, you can either combine it with an independent clause or rephrase it to form a complete sentence. Adding an independent clause will make it a dependent clause, allowing it to function as part of a complete sentence. Alternatively, you can revise the subordinate clause into an independent clause by providing any missing subject or verb it may have.

Is 'he has not played tennis'a subordinate clause?
there is no subordinate conjunction (because, after, therefore, even though, etc) so it is not a subordinate clause. if you look at it and it could be a complete sentence on it's own and make sense, it's not a subordinate clause.
What is the independent clause for 'When rain warms the ocean'?
I normally don't answer homework questions, but I'll bite on this one. "When rain warms the ocean" is in itself an incomplete sentence. The entire thing is a dependent clause. As constructed, it has no independent clause. However, it could be altered to read "Rain warms the ocean". In that case, the entire sentence is the independent clause.

How can you identify the main clause in a long sentence?
The main clause can always stand by itself as a complete sentence. Subordinate clauses cannot, as they include words such as 'after', 'when', 'because' and so on, which leave them hanging in the air. You need to strip out any clause that can't stand alone. What you are left with is the main clause. For example: 'After they had finished their shopping, and once they had reassured themselves that they still had plenty of money left, they decided to look for somewhere to have lunch, but they couldn't agree on whether a pub would be better, or a cafe.' Go through each clause and see if it could stand alone as a complete sentence.
