Which is NOT true about dependent clauses in a complex sentence?

There can only be one dependent clause in a complex sentence, never more than that.

The dependent clause can go in the beginning of the sentence.

The dependent clause can go after the independent clause.

If the dependent clause begins the sentence, you need to add a comma before the independent clause.
