Answer :

The group of words in bold "that hang from the ceiling of the cave" is a clause. Explanation: 1. A clause is a group of words that contains a subject and a verb. In this case, "that" is the subject and "hang" is the verb, making it a clause. 2. Clauses can stand alone as complete sentences or be part of a larger sentence. As for the complete subject in the sentence provided, it is "stalactites."
