C) I interviewed a local scientist.

Explanation: an independent clause is a phrase that has a subject and a predicate, and that can stand by itself and make complete sense. In the given sentence, the independent clause is the corresponding to option C: I interviewed a local scientist, the subject is "I" and the predicate is "interviewed a local scientist." The rest of the sentence "because I needed stronger support for my essay" is a subordinate clause.

- "the basic difference between keywords and subjects is that subjects (or "subject headings") have been predetermined, while keywords have not. a keyword is an easy place to start because you can use any word that seems to fit your search; this is called "natural language" searching."
