Read the sentence. mr. paulson is the teacher who inspired me to study chemistry. which kind of clause are the words in bold? a. adjective clause b. noun clause c. adverb clause (who inspired me to study chemistry is bolded)

The correct answer is A. Adjective clause

Explanation:

In grammar, a clause refers to a set of words that go together and contain at least a subject and a verb and can have different function ins a sentence. In the case of adjective clauses, these clauses explain or describe a noun, which is usually placed right before the adjective clause, which is called antecedent and it is common adjective clauses depend on a broader clause or sentence. Additionally, this type of clause differs from the adverb clause because adverb clauses modify or describe a verb and from noun clause because noun clauses act as a noun. Therefore in the case of the clause " who inspired me to study chemistry" in the sentence "Mr. Paulson is the teacher who inspired me to study chemistry" this clause is an adjective clause because it describes Mr. Paulson which means this is a set of words that act as an adjective rather than as a noun or adverb.

explanation:

the intellectual community is a place like a university where people with high marks, or original thought or an outstanding interest in something gather. they take classes together. they discuss things. they argue sometimes, and not always in a friendly way. but if they argue, it is because they are passionate about something, and there is nothing the matter with that.

lately i've been hearing rumors that it is not the way it was when i went to school. the one thing all schools used to have was free speech. the 1st amendment rights were sacred. now i'm hearing they are not. students can be reported and disciplined for giving an off the wall opinion.

that is shameful.

intellectual ideas are meant to be discussed. they are meant to be chewed up and worked on. that is the primary responsibility of every intellectual community. if that is not the way it is, then that is not a school to go to.

social media, in my opinion, and this is just an opinion. i wouldn't take it too seriously, complicates everything to do with human communication. you can want to share things and others feel they have the right to be very critical or sarcastic or mean about what you share. lack of respect is an immeasurable intolerable condition and social media abounds with that sort of thing.

one of the things i really like about is how careful people are because they must have some idea that the mods are exactly what the word says they are. they police this board very well, and what is so remarkable about them is that they are no older than the average grade 12 student.

my hat goes off to them (which means i respect them quite a bit).
