Analyze the clauses in the sentence

The sentence is: "If you start to feel hungry, fix yourself a snack."

• "If you start to feel hungry" is a dependent clause (subordinating conjunction "If" + subject "you" + verb "start").
• "fix yourself a snack" is an independent clause (imperative sentence with an implied subject "you" + verb "fix").

Determine the sentence structure

A sentence containing exactly one independent clause and at least one dependent clause is classified as a complex sentence.
