Adjective clauses describe a noun and begin with a relative pronoun (such as who, which, that). Adverb clauses modify a verb and begin with a subordinating conjunction (such as, because, when, if).

Relative clauses can be used to replace nouns in sentences, and are usually introduced by a relative pronoun or adverb. Adjective clauses usually start with a relative pronoun like 'which', 'who', 'whom', or 'whose' and are used to modify nouns and pronouns. Adverb clauses are typically used to modify verbs, though they can also modify adjectives, other adverbs, and entire sentences.
