a. What grammatical name is given to this expression as it is used in the
passage?
b. What is its function?
Answers:

b. It qualifies the noun ‘bees’.
Explanation:
An adjectival clause is a subordinate clause, which begins with a relative pronoun such as "which" in the provided example. Its function is to add details about a noun or pronoun, working as an adjective despite being a phrase and not just one word.
In this example, the word "which" is a relative pronoun that acts as the subject (the bees) and adds details about their actions.
