In my opinion, the correct answer is D. He compares the powers of the executive and legislative branches to those of the judiciary, highlighting the strengths of the former and the relative weaknesses of the latter. In Hamilton's view, the judiciary branch is the least powerful of the three. He says that it has no real power or influence over "the sword" or "the purse", which are controlled by the executive and legislative branches. It is devoid of force and will, and it can merely judge, but even that it cannot do without help from the executive branch.
An independent clause is a set of words that can hold on its own as a sentence. It has a subject, verb and complete thought, as most would say. A dependent clause on the other hand cannot stand on its own.
The answer to this is "She can't study in France.".
Patricia does not know French is not the complete clause, Because Patricia does not know French is an dependent clause easily identified because it starts with BECAUSE and of course BECAUSE is not a clause, it is a subordinating conjunction.
If you are referring to the people Christopher Columbus found in America and incorrectly named them Indians (because he thought he had arrived in India), then the correct answer is Native Americans.
A subordinate clause, dependent clause or embedded clause is a clause that is embedded within a complex sentence. For instance, in the English sentence "I know that Bette is a dolphin", the clause "that Bette is a dolphin" occurs as the complement of the verb "know" rather than as a freestanding sentence.
