A clause is a group of words that contains both a subject and a verb but cannot always be considered a full, grammatical sentence.
An adjective clause, also called a relative clause, modifies the noun or pronoun preceding it. The noun or pronoun that it modifies is called the antecedent. The clause will start with a relative pronoun (who, whom, which, that, where, whose, whoever).
Examples:
A relative clause is used to modify nouns and pronouns.Examples:The cake that mother made is chocolate. (the relative clause 'that mother made' modifies the antecedent noun 'cake')They have a prize for you who had the most points. (the relative clause 'who had the most points' modifies the pronoun 'you')

(the relative clause 'that mother made' modifies the antecedent noun 'cake')They have a prize for you who had the most points. (the relative clause 'who had the most points' modifies the pronoun 'you')
The adverb clause typically modifies the verb in the sentence.
A clause modifier is a word, phrase, or clause that provides additional information about the subject of a sentence. It can add descriptive or explanatory details and usually comes after the subject it modifies. Clause modifiers can help to clarify or enhance the meaning of a sentence.
An adverbial phrase. A word, phrase, or clause of a sentence has the aspect of an adverb if it modifies a verb. By the same token, a word, phrase, or clause of a sentence that modifies a noun would be an adjective, adjectivial phrase or adjectivial clause.

An adverb does not modify a noun.The word where is an adverb of place which modifies a verb.Example:Where are my keys? (adverb)You should watch where you're going. (adverbial clause)
The adverb clause typically modifies the verb in the sentence.
a dependent clause that modifies a noun
Anything that modifies a noun is an adjective even if it is also a subordinate clause.
An adverb clause is a subordinate clause that modifies a verb, adjective, or adverb. A conjunction that begins an adverb clause is called a subordinating conjunction. It joins the clause to the rest of the sentence.
