Answer 1

2) {I went to see the Taj Mahal} which is in Agra.

Explanation:

both are dependent clauses

Answer 2

A clause could be stated as a particular phrase that is present in a sentence that constitutes both a subject as well as a verb.

• The subject and a verb in a clause form a relationship.
• Based on this relationship, clauses are broadly classified into two types, the Independent form of Clause (Main Clause) and the Dependent form of Clause (Subordinate Clause).

The clauses have been underlined appropriately for each sentence and their respective types have been stated below:

1. Children are as beautiful as flowers.
   In the given sentence, the underlined part is known as a Dependent or Subordinate form of Clause since the clause is unable to add a meaning alone.
   
2. I went to see the Taj Mahal which is in Agra.​
   The underlined clause is identified as an Independent or Main Clause since the clause makes sense on its own.

Hence, the clauses have been underlined and stated properly.
