Answer 6

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

The capital words in the sentence "When Shawn arrives at work, HE PUTS HIS LUNCHBOX IN THE FRIDGE" represent an independent clause. An independent clause is a group of words that can stand alone as a complete sentence because it expresses a complete thought. In this case, "He puts his lunchbox in the fridge" is a complete thought that can function as a standalone sentence.
