Answer

1. **D.C** (Dependent Clause - "until you get back" cannot stand alone as a sentence.)2. **D.C** (Dependent Clause - "when you go out" cannot stand alone as a sentence.)3. **D.C** (Dependent Clause - "before you build a campfire at a national park" cannot stand alone as a sentence.)4. **D.C** (Dependent Clause - "while..." is incomplete and needs an independent clause to complete the thought.)5. **D.C** (Dependent Clause - "As soon as my friends come" is incomplete and cannot stand alone as a sentence. It needs an independent clause to explain what will happen when the friends arrive.)
