To determine which sentence contains a dependent clause, we need to understand what a dependent clause is. A dependent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and a verb but cannot stand alone as a complete sentence.
Let's analyze each sentence:
A. "I know you're busy tonight and you can't join us." - This sentence contains two independent clauses joined by the coordinating conjunction "and." Both clauses can stand alone as complete sentences, so this sentence does not contain a dependent clause.
B. "The moon is supposed to be especially bright in the sky tonight." - This sentence consists of one independent clause with a subject ("The moon") and a verb ("is supposed"). There is no dependent clause in this sentence.
C. "We should practice the song again." - This sentence contains one independent clause with a subject ("We") and a verb ("should practice"). There is no dependent clause here.
D. "I've watched so many movies that take place in London." - This sentence contains an independent clause ("I've watched so many movies") and a dependent clause ("that take place in London"). The dependent clause "that take place in London" cannot stand alone as a complete sentence, so this sentence contains a dependent clause.
Therefore, the sentence that contains a dependent clause is option D: "I've watched so many movies that take place in London."
