Noun clause.

Explanation:

I answered in recent one of my contributions here about adjective, adverb and noun clause issue in details, an inquisitive reader might read them.

Only 5 connecting words make an adjective clause--like:
who/whom/whose/that/which.

But these are not enough during the time of detecting for NOUN CLAUSE. Sometime these signs could be a noun clause to instead of adjective clause.
