While Goku was training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber
he became incredibly strong
Both A and B
Neither A nor B
Answer explanation
An independent clause is a group of words that can stand alone as a complete sentence. In this question, 'he became incredibly strong' is an independent clause because it has a subject (he) and a verb (became) and expresses a complete thought. The other option, 'While Goku was training in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber,' is a dependent clause and cannot stand alone as a complete sentence.
