Answer:
fragment
Explanation:
Unlike sentences,<em> "fragments"</em><u><em> do not give a complete thought or idea</em></u>. They are incomplete, and come as a part of a sentence. Besides this, they could also be lacking in a subject or a predicate.
<em>"If you choose to be competitive"</em> is particularly a <em>"dependent clause" </em>(subordinating clause), which used a subordinating conjunction,<em> "if." </em>As a subordinating clause, <u><em>it should be attached to a main clause</em></u> in order to become a complete sentence.
