a noun clause
a relative clause
an adverbial clause

Answer 1

an adverbial clause is the type of clause

Answer 2

Clause can be defined as the part of a sentence having its own predicate and subject. However, the query asks for the exact classification of the type of clause. So, in this sentence, the clause is 'until she finds an apartment'. It is an adverbial clause because it is modifying Merlita's reason of the action- 'staying with friends'.

Therefore, the answer of this query will be option-C.

Answer- An adverbial phrase.
