In the following sentence

The clams, which he ate, were <span> still fresh.

The main clause is:

</span>The clams..., were <span> still fresh. </span>


The subordinate clause is then "which he ate".

This clause gives more information about The clams, which means it has the function of an adjective: it's an adjective clause.

The <u>main clause</u> in the sentence <em>The clams, which he ate, were still fresh</em> is The clams were still fresh.

The<u> subordinate clause</u>, that is which he ate, is used as an adjective, since it comes after the noun and motifies it. This type of clauses are usually introduced by words like <em>that</em>, <em>when</em>, <em>where</em>, which, etc. and separated by commas whenever it is a non-defining clause.
