Answer:

Adjective, adverb and noun

Explanation:

A clause is a group of words that at least have a subject and a verb, and that may be independent (It can stand by itself) or independent (It cannot stand by itself because it does not have full meaning). Dependent clauses may have one of the following three grammatical functions: Adjective, adverb, or noun.

  • Noun clause: It acts as a noun in a sentence, and they tend to be introduced by words like <em>how, that, what, whatever, when, where, whether, which, whichever, who, whoever, whom, whomever,</em> and <em>why</em>. For example: <u><em>Whatever you tell me</em></u><em> shall remain our secret.</em><em> </em>
  • Adverb clause: It modifies adjectives, verbs or other adverbs. This type of clauses often answers questions such as <em>why, how, when, where </em>or<em> in what circumstances. </em>For example: <u><em>After drinking that much liquor</em></u><em>, I felt sick.</em><em> </em>(When did you feel sick? A: After drinking that much liquor.
  • Adjective clause: It modifies a noun, by describing or giving extra information about that noun. It often answers questions like <em>who </em>or <em>which one</em>. For example: <em>Stefano reached out for the cup of coffee </em><u><em>that laid on the window sill.</em></u> (Which cup of coffee? The one that laid on the window sill).

Whats outling a paragraph mean
wariber [46]

Once a topic has been chosen, ideas have been generated through brainstorming and free writing, and a working thesis has been created, the last step a writer can perform in the prewriting stage is creating an outline. An outline allows a writer to categorize the main points, to organize the paragraphs into an order that makes sense, and to make sure that each paragraph/idea can be fully developed. Essentially, an outline helps prevent a writer from getting stuck when performing the actual writing of the essay.  

An outline provides a map of where to go with the essay. A well-developed outline will show what the thesis of the essay is, what the main idea of each body paragraph is, and the evidence/support that will be offered in each paragraph to substantiate the main points.
