A complete sentence requires a subject an a verb.

I AM is a complete sentence.

Examples of dependent clauses:

BECAUSE i AM HUNGRY

IF I DEVELOP MY SKILLS

Both of these need more to become complete sentence. They are dependent clauses–that is, they are fragments, to use your teminology. They need to modify independent clauses.

BECAUSE i AM HUNGRY, I AM GOING TO EAT

IF I DEVELOP MY SKILLS, I WILL WIN THE CONTEST.

A fragmented sentence is when it does not have all the necessary components to make it a complete sentence.

Verb, noun adjective

It means that it compounds the sentence making it a fragment.

dependent words/clauses are such that are subsidiary to the main subject clause, e.g. ‘She went to the shops’ (main) ‘but when she got there it was closed ‘(dependent on main clause) .

good luck
