Answer:
Relative Clause.
Explanation:
A relative clause is the clause that consists of a subject and a verb. This clause begins with relative pronouns such as 'who, whose, whom, where, when, that, etc.' A relative clause helps in relating to something else in the sentence.
A relative clause is a dependent clause that helps in the identification of the noun that precedes it.
For example, The girl, whom the narrator met in the train, was blind.
