'... the young man who had brought himself to Lata's attention ...'
Identify the clause in the underlined part of the sentence.
Answer: B
The underlined part is an Adjective Clause.
'Who had brought himself to Lata's attention' has its own subject (who) and verb (had brought), so it is a clause. It begins with the relative pronoun who and describes the noun 'the young man', telling us which young man is meant. A clause that qualifies a noun in this way is an adjective (relative) clause.
It is not a principal clause, because it cannot stand alone as a sentence. An adverb clause would modify a verb, telling when, why or how; a noun clause would act as a subject or object. This clause does neither.
