identify which part of this sentence is a dependent clause: I laugh whenever my roommate tells a joke.

I laugh whenever is a dependent clause. This is because it can't stand alone, it wouldn't make since. My roommate tells a joke can stand by itself and make its own sentence. Therefore I laugh whenever is a dependent clause.
