The bolded subordinating conjunction "because" in the sentence is linking the independent clause "She was late for class" to the dependent clause "of the bus scheduling failure," which adds an explanation for why she was late. It provides the reason for the situation described in the main clause. So the correct description is:
**linking the independent clause to the dependent clause which adds information to the main clause.**
**linking the independent clause to the dependent clause which adds information to the main clause.**
