Answers:
A noun clause is just a group of words that are acting like they are one single word. They play the same role in a sentence as a single-word noun. They also have a subject and verb in themselves (otherwise, it would just be referred to as a noun phrase).
Anything a single-word noun can do in a sentence, a noun clause can do:
Mrs. Clark, a woman, won first prize.
In that sentence, "a woman" is a noun. "Who is my neighbor" is a clause (it is the question form of the clause "my neighbor is who."). It plays the same grammatical role in that sentence as "a woman" did.
A clause is a subject and a verb that make a complete thought. A noun clause is a subject/verb combo that act in the place of a simple noun inside a sentence.
