Explanation:
The given sentences are examples of complex sentences - sentences that consist of one independent clause and at least one dependent (subordinate) clause.
Independent clauses are clauses that can stand alone as sentences. Every sentence must contain a subject and predicate and express a complete thought. Subordinate clauses can't stand alone as sentences because they lack at least one of these elements. Their purpose is to provide additional information about what is stated in the independent clause.
