The thylacine, which was also called the Tasmanian tiger, was a dog-like creature unique to the island of Tasmania. (Option B)

Relative clauses describe nouns like adjectives do (that is why they are also called adjectival clauses) and can be classified into:

  • Defining - Provide essential information about the head noun and are usually tied to the main clause (no using of commas here)
  • Non-defining - Provide information that can be removed without affecting the noun (commas are used here)

They usually begin with a relative pronoun such as <em>which, who, whom, whose, and that</em>.

In this case, whe have a non-defining relative clause.

'With friends like these..' is an informative literary text where the author describes how friends are an essential part when it comes to enjoyment of life. In lines 9 to 27 ie from the third paragraph the author explains the construction of our brain in a conscious and unconscious way. The author says we as a human being often guess about the situations when we cannot see the reality directly. And when our ideas takes the shape of reality, that's when we feel that our ideas are validate, we feel secure and happy, but when those same ideas are proved wrong, we feel unsettled and distressed.

The author then connects this information with the idea that friendships are essential to our sense of who we are. They are an important sense of validation. When a friend validates our idea that something is as we see it, when we feel reassured, relaxed, and safer.
