Analyze the sentence to choose the correct answer for each space.

An antecedent is a noun or pronoun to which another pronoun refers.

Subordinate clause:

What type of clause is it?

Verified Answer :

The subordinate clause here is 'to which another pronoun refers', and it is called a 'relative clause'.

In the sentence "an antecedent is a noun or pronoun to which another pronoun refers" the subordinate clause is "to which another pronoun refers".

It is a subordinate clause introduced by the subordinating conjunction "to which" that is linking the independent clause to the dependent one.

The subordinate clause is a relative (also called adjectival) clause since it is modifying the noun "pronoun".
