Answer:
The type of parenthetical element that refers to specific nouns and begins with words like who, whom, and where is:
B. relative clauses.
Explanation:
A relative clause, or adjective clause, always starts with a relative pronoun or a relative adverb. Its purpose is to tell us something about a specific noun. Since it is a clause, it must have a subject and a verb. Take a look at the example below:
- That is the girl that I met at the dinner party last night.
In the sentence above, the clause "that I met" gives us information about the noun "girl". It starts with the relative pronoun "that" and has a subject ("I") and a verb ("met").
NOTE: The relative clause above can have the relative pronoun omitted. However, when the clause has a relative pronoun that also functions as the subject, we cannot omit it, as is shown in the example below:
- That is the girl who thought the party was at 8:00.
