The dependent clause among the choices is option A. Although we had tickets to the game. The rest of the choices are independent clauses. A dependent clause consists of a subject and a verb but does not convey a complete thought and cannot stand on its own. It is usually introduced by a subordinating conjunction.

Answer:

A) Although we had tickets to the game

Explanation:

A dependent clause, also called subordinate clause, is a group of words that at least has a subject and a verb, and that needs to rely on another clause in order to make sense because it can not stand by itself and have a complete meaning. Option A is the clause that best exemplifies it: if we look at it, it seems like something is missing, this is so because it needs an independent clause to depend on!. Here is an example of how dependent clauses should be used:

Although we had tickets to the game, we decided not to go.

"We decided not to go" is the independent clause (It can stand alone and have full meaning)

The best answer is
The author uses indirect characterization to describe how Millicent feels.

While the author's description of the ceremony gives the idea that Millicent probably looks pretty gross, with egg on her head and whatnot, the passage mainly gives the reader an empathetic view into Millicent's experience.
The scene is described as sounds and sensations from Millicent's point of view. She feels her stiff hair, and the cold egg on her back, hears the stifled laughter and crunch of the egg breaking. We can imagine the intensity of the experience, blindfolded and hearing, feeling, and probably smelling the unpleasant experiences during this initiation.
In the end, the passage concludes with: "It was all part of the ceremony." This final sentence may relay how Millicent is processing the unpleasant initiation, rationalizing that this is just a step on her way to being part of the group.
