To identify a dependent clause in a sentence, we need to look for a group of words that contains a subject and a verb but cannot stand alone as a complete sentence. Here are the sentences provided:

1. She wished she had studied more for the social studies test.
2. Joe was driving home, but Sue was in the passenger seat.
3. They gave medals to the athletes on the podium.
4. While putting on her shoe, Ella noticed the hole in her sock.

Out of these options, the sentence that includes a dependent clause is:

4. While putting on her shoe, Ella noticed the hole in her sock.

The phrase "While putting on her shoe" is a dependent clause because it has a subject "Ella" and a verb "noticed," but it does not express a complete thought on its own.
