Answer:

<em>"they also have to monitor the other two branches to make sure they are acting in accordance with the law."</em>

Explanation:

An independent clause is a group of words or phrases that can stand as a full sentence without the need for any other clause or words to complete it. It contains a subject and a verb, and a complete thought which makes it independent.

In the given sentence, there are two parts of the sentence. One is<em> "Not only does each branch of government have their own specific job"</em> which is a dependent clause as it does not contain a complete thought or is not a complete sentence. The other part of the second <em>"they also have to monitor the other two branches to make sure they are acting in accordance with the law"</em> is an independent clause as it not only contains a subject "they" and verb "monitor" but it also is a complete sentence on its own.

Thus, the second part of the sentence is an independent clause.
