Question

is the group of words in bold a phrase or a clause?
humans are classified as omnivores because they generally consume both plants and animals, although some people are vegetarians or vegans.
phrase
clause

Explanation:

A clause contains a subject and a predicate (a verb that shows action or state of being). The bolded group "Humans are classified as omnivores" has the subject "Humans" and the predicate "are classified as omnivores", which functions as a complete grammatical unit with a subject-verb relationship. A phrase lacks this subject-verb pair.

Answer:

clause
