Answer 3

I would suggest that you, rineheart, look up "adjective clause" and then look up "adverbial clause." What's the difference?

Note that the clause in question modifies the word "king."

Answer 4

"whose many wives fared badly" would be an adjective clause, as it is a distinguished fact that describes the subject/noun, Henry the VIII.
