Are the underlined words in the sentence an independent clause, a subordinate clause, or neither? Where there is water, there ar
blondinia [14]
I don't see any underlined words in the sentence. However, I'll just post my answer based on my understanding.

Where there is water ⇒ subordinate clause
There are mosquitoes ⇒ independent clause

Independent clause is a complete sentence. It has a subject, a verb, and expresses a complete thought.

Subordinate clause is a dependent clause that starts with a conjunction. It also has a subject and a verb but it is dependent on the main clause.
