The noun clause found in the sentence is "that traffic blocked the roads into town," since it is a subordinate clause set off by a relative pronoun.

<h3>What is a noun clause?</h3>

A noun clause is a group of words containing a subject and a predicate. It is a dependent or subordinate clause set off by a relative pronoun such as "that" or "who," and it functions as a noun in the sentence, which means it can be the subject or the object of the sentence.

With the information above in mind, we can safely choose option C as the correct answer. The clause "that traffic blocked the roads into town" is a noun clause because:

  • It is set off by the relative pronoun "that".
  • It has a subject and a predicate.
  • It functions as a noun in the sentence.

Kiki brushed back her luxuriant black hair then she tied it with a satin ribbon
Gnesinka [82]

Kiki brushed back her luxuriant black hair; then she tied it with a satin ribbon.

The semicolon is emboldened.

Explanation:

The semicolon is a punctuation device used to join two sentences that are inherently complete on their own and join them without the use of any propositions or conjunctions but simply putting up a punctuation mark.

The punctuation mark serves to show the very apparent connection between the two sentences that are complete on their own but now have a connection through the semicolon so they are to be read in context of one another.
