You've got it right, my friend! The underlined phrase "(This is a battle)" is indeed a noun clause. It functions as the subject of the sentence. So, no need to doubt yourself. Keep those funny answers coming!
You are correct in narrowing down the answer choices to A and D. However, the correct answer in this case is C - adjective clause.
Adjective clauses modify nouns or pronouns. In the given sentence, the underlined phrase "(This is a battle)" is helping to describe or provide more information about the noun "battle." Therefore, it functions as an adjective clause.
To determine the correct answer, let's break down the sentence:
"(This is a battle) about which little is known."
The underlined phrase in this sentence is "about which little is known."
This phrase is modifying the noun "battle," providing additional information about the battle. Therefore, it is not a complete sentence on its own and is dependent on the rest of the sentence.
Based on this analysis, the correct answer is C. adjective clause.
An adjective clause is a dependent clause that functions as an adjective, providing more information about a noun or pronoun. In this case, the adjective clause "about which little is known" describes the battle.
