Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Correct answer: Adjective Clause
Explanation:
"who exercises daily" describes the noun "He" and modifies that noun.
It begins with the relative pronoun "who," which commonly introduces relative (adjective) clauses.
Because it cannot stand alone, it is a dependent clause and therefore not the principal (main) clause.
Conclusion: Choose the response that names Adjective Clause.
Note: The question's answer metadata currently identifies Principal Clause as correct; this should be updated so the correct answer is the option whose text is "Adjective Clause."
