Identify the clause of the underlined part :
"... an engineer who worked in some distant projects ..."
Answer: B
The underlined part is an adjective clause.
'who worked in some distant projects' begins with the relative pronoun who and describes the noun engineer, telling us which engineer is meant. A clause that qualifies a noun in this way is an adjective (relative) clause.
A noun clause would act as the subject or object of a verb, and an adverb clause would modify a verb by giving time, reason, condition and so on. A principal clause can stand alone as a sentence, which 'who worked in some distant projects' cannot.
