To define on what

"Nevertheless, various principles can be acknowledged that attempts to define the grammatical relations are based on." (Wikipedia.)

Nevertheless, various principles can be acknowledged that attempts to define on what the grammatical relations are based.
(In my interpretation what is a fused relative pronoun.)

Am I right?
