Explanation:

A phrase lacks a subject-verb pair and cannot express a complete thought. A clause contains a subject and a verb, and can express a complete or partial thought.

1. "cooking dinner": No subject-verb pair → Phrase
2. "Cooper ran through the tunnel": Has subject (Cooper) and verb (ran) → Clause
3. "through the tunnel": No subject-verb pair → Phrase
4. "the man with the long trench coat": No subject-verb pair → Phrase
5. "when I am hungry": Has subject (I) and verb (am) → Clause
6. "she jumped": Has subject (she) and verb (jumped) → Clause
