Explanation:

A clause is a group of words that contains a subject and a verb. An independent clause can stand on its own. In other words, it makes sense when we read it, and we do not need extra information to comprehend the clause's meaning.

A sentence can have one independent clause or more than one. In the cases where a sentence has more than one independent clause, we can connect them with commas and the FANBOYS or semicolons.

FANBOYS stand for: for (F), and (A), but (B), or (O), yet (Y), so (S). Sentences 1, 2,3,6, and 8 have a FANBOY, so we need to write a comma before them.

On the other hand, sentences number 4 and 7 connect the two independent clauses with a semicolon (;), Sentence 4 is not contrasting or adding two things as the FANBOYS do, but sentence number 7 has the word "however." We use "however" to contrast or compare the clauses. When we use it, we have to write a semicolon or a colon before it and a comma afterward.

Lastly, we have sentence 5, where we added a period to punctuate the second independent clause; however, we could have used a semicolon to show the connection between the two clauses.

In sentence number 9, we link the two independent clauses with the comma and FANBOY but. The two independent clauses are: I went to the supermarket. I didn't buy milk.

In sentence number 10, the two independent clauses are: My mother brought the chicken. My uncle brought the dessert.

We can see that clauses in sentences 9 and 10 have a subject and a verb, and they stand on their own.

i believe it true i guess because you are the one that is writing so you should know what you are putting in your essay.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
