Clause is a sentence which must have subject and a verb. Two main types of clauses are there: Main or principal or independent clause and subordinate or dependent clause. Depending the action of various clauses, different forms of clause can occur such as noun clause, prepositional clause, adjective clause, adverbial clause and so on. Example of clause: English is the most popular language, which is being taught all over the world as language of communication. (The sentence has got two clauses. 'English is the most popular language' is an independent clause as it can stand on its own, and 'which is being taught all over the world as language of communication' is subordinate or dependent clause as it cannot stand on its own.
An example of a dependent clause using "who" is: "who lives next door." This clause cannot stand alone as a complete sentence because it relies on the rest of the sentence for context and meaning.
The sentence "I went to the store" is an example of a main clause ("I went to the store") that can stand alone. Adding a dependent clause, such as "after work," would give additional context and complete the meaning of the sentence: "I went to the store after work."
A subordinate clause-also called a dependent clause-will begin with a subordinate conjunction or a relative pronoun and will contain both a subject and a verb. This combination of words will not form a complete sentence. It will instead make a reader want additional information to finish the sentence. An example is:Although Amy sneezed all over the tuna saladAlthough= subordinate conjunction.
A noun clause containing a relative clause is a type of sentence structure where a relative clause, which provides additional information about a noun, functions as the subject or object of the sentence. For example, "The book that you lent me is excellent" has a noun clause "that you lent me" containing the relative clause "that you lent me."
Yes, a dependent clause is a noun clause. The definition of a clause is a group of words containing a subject noun or pronoun and its verb. Example sentence:John went swimming but Jane didn't.

An independent clause is a sentence that can stand on its own.
The question is incomplete. There is an if clause but no then clause.
The difference between the independent clause and the dependent clause is: "dependent clause" has a complete thought like for example "the catcher missed the ball" it expresses who missed the ball (the catcher)."independent clause" has no complete thought like for example "the movie idol" it cannot express who is the movie idol.

Example of penalty

Example sentence - You must read the contract completely in order to find the clause that applies.
the clause that couldn't stand on its own is called: Dependent clause or Subordinating clause. example: before you leave for work today. another would be: After the long exhausting day. These two examples may contain a subject and a verb (you - subject and leave - verb [for the first example]) but this group of words is dependent clause because this group of words does not express a complete thought and it needs to be attached to a main clause or a independent clause. By the way, a clause that could stand on its own is called a main clause or an idependent clause. An example of which is "I slept for three hours." This in fact is an independent clause or a simple sentence. but if you attach the dependent clause - "After a long exhausting day." you will have a sentence that looks like this: After the long exhausting day, I slept for three hours. (this now becomes a complex sentence. It is a combination of an independent clause and a dependent clause in one sentence.
