Yes, you are correct! Sentence A, "My mother, who never wastes anything, rinsed and saved the take-out boxes," contains a dependent clause. The dependent clause in this sentence is "who never wastes anything," because it starts with "who" and is providing additional information about "my mother." Dependent clauses cannot stand alone as complete sentences and rely on the rest of the sentence to make sense.
