In the sentence given, "Identify the dependent clause in the following sentence: I will put away my winter clothes and store the blankets in the upstairs closet when I no longer have to turn on the furnace every day."

The dependent clause is: "when I no longer have to turn on the furnace every day."

Here's why:
1. A dependent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and a verb but does not express a complete thought on its own.
2. In this case, "when I no longer have to turn on the furnace every day" relies on the main clause to make sense.
3. The main clause in this sentence is: "I will put away my winter clothes and store the blankets in the upstairs closet."
4. The dependent clause, "when I no longer have to turn on the furnace every day," depends on the main clause for its complete meaning, making it a dependent clause.
