Answer:
Absolute

Explanation:
A subordinate CLAUSE (not phrase) contains a subject and verb, is introduced by a conjunction, and supports the main clause.
An absolute phrase combines a noun and a participle. (e.g. shining stars, crossed arms)
A prepositional phrase is a modifying phrase consisting of a preposition and its object. (on the table, beside the stairs)
A participial phrase will begin with a present or past participle and will always function as an adjective, describing a nearby noun or pronoun.
(e.g. PUTTING ON HER BOOTS, she trudged into the snow.)
Answer with Explanation:
1. Why do you think that Warren Brown includes the fact that Colin Powell moved from Harlem to the Bronx when he was three years old?
Warren Brown included the fact that Colin Powell moved from Harlem to the Bronx in order to show that <u>he was brought up in a black community until he was three years old.</u> It also shows how he grew up in a better-living area compared to that of the Harlem. The Bronx contained many immigrants and it this is where Colin was raised. This allowed Colin to mingle with different nationals and <u><em>not mind the color of his skin.</em></u>
2. What does this suggest about his parents?
This suggested that his parents<em> (Luther and Maud)</em> were concerned about rearing their children in a nicer community rather than the Harlem. They wanted Colin and Marylin to grow up with "confidence" and "discipline." They wanted the best for their children.
