Semaj Walsh · Answer 2

The subordinate clause who played the part of Prospero can be identified as an B. adjective clause.

Explanation:

A subordinate clause is a clause that is dependent on a main clause and is usually introduced by either a conjunction or a relative pronoun. Adjective clauses in particular are dependent clauses that function as adjectives because they describe a noun or pronoun.

Adjective clauses can be essential (they provide essential information to describe the noun or pronoun) or non-essential (they provide extra information that is not necessary to understand the ultimate meaning of the sentence.) Non-essential adjective clauses are set off with commas, such as in the sentence Bryan, who played the part of Prospero, was the star of the play The Tempest.
