Answer:
The question is not complete, as none of the clauses in the sentence are underlined, however, I will give you the type of each of the two clauses:
<u>Because he ran:</u> (subordinate clause)
<u>he was able to catch the bus.</u> (independent clause)
Explanation:
A clause is a part of a sentence, and a clause contains a verb.
Subordinate/dependent clauses are clauses that cannot stand alone when isolated from a sentence, and still make complete sense, instead, they help to give further meaning to the main/independent clause. In this case "Because he ran", is not a complete thought on its own, as it leads to asking the question "so what?"
Independent/main clauses can stand alone and still make sense. In this example "he was able to catch the bus" can stand alone and still make sense.

Explanation:
Dear Sally,
Recently I’ve been having family issues. My brothers aren’t getting along causing my parents to move my younger brother in my room. He doesn’t keep his side clean at all and everything he does is weird. I’m older and want more privacy! My parents don’t understand where I’m coming from. Get back to me soon.
From, (your name)
