An independent clause is a clause that can stand on its own, by itself. It does not need to be joined to any other clauses, because it contains all the information necessary to be a complete sentences. Independent clauses have three components: They have a subject - they tell the reader what the sentence is about.

Discuss any three reason why cases of sexual abuse and gender-based violence are not reported
kodGreya [7K]
There are many reasons why these would not be reported. Although sometimes the reason may be: 
1.) When the sexual abuse (SA) can be inflicted by a family member or close family friend, this can lead to 2.) the victim being scared to tell adults or the authorities. Although sometimes, the reason the victim is scared (if it's a child) to report it because the parent is the inflictor. 
3.) Often times, when SA is inflicted by a sibling, parent, or family friend, the victim is afraid to report it because they may believe it's their fault it's happening to them (they're fault they're sexually abused) or they may feel weird because of it. 
4.) When Gender-based violence (GBV) occurs, it's usually between children (teens mostly) at school or outside of safe places such as home. The reason this is not reported because many times adults/authorities (such as teachers) don't take it seriously and the kids feel neglected because of this. This then leads to the child (when they're affected by the GBV in the future,) believing that no one cares and or it's not important and or wrong. Therefore, not reporting the act because of one neglectful adult.

Questions 1–9: Find the prepositional phrases in the following sentences. Indicate the preposition and its object. We were trave
Ira Lisetskai [31]

1. to(prep) Chicago (obj)

2. by(prep) car(obj)

3. By(prep) afternoon(obj)

4. for(prep) lunch(obj)

5. near(prep) river(obj)

6. on(prep) water(obj)

7. for(prep) trip(obj)

8. of(prep) Chicago(obj)

9. at(prep) motel(obj)

A preposition tells where one noun is in relation to another noun. It is always followed by a noun, which is the object of a preposition. One silly way to remember most prepositions is to think about a squirrel and a tree. A squirrel can go (through, on, under, in, off, to, by...) the tree. There are a few prepositions that just need to be remembered such as for.
