Answer:

Predicate Noun

Step-by-step explanation:

A predicate noun, or predicate nominative, is a noun or noun phrase that provides more information about the subject of the sentence. It completes a linking verb, like "to be." Predicate nouns can only follow linking verbs because they're expressing a state of being, not an action.
