Explanation:

  1. (A) The boy who came here is my brother.

    • The clause "who came here" describes "the boy," making it an adjective clause.
    • (A) → (II)
  2. (B) I want to know who came here.

    • The clause "who came here" acts as the object of the verb "to know," making it a noun clause.
    • (B) → (I)
  3. (C) I had left the room when my mother came to meet me.

    • The clause "when my mother came to meet me" provides information about the time of the action, making it an adverb clause.
    • (C) → (III)
  4. (D) Please tell me who came to meet me.

    • The clause "who came to meet me" acts as the object of the verb "tell," making it a noun clause.
    • (D) → (IV)
