The sentence that contains a misplaced modifier is C) With a jump and a meow, the doorbell rang, and the kitten leaped off the couch.
The way this sentence is written, it would seem that the doorbell rang with a jump and a meow, and not the kitten.

The correct answer is C. With a jump and a meow, the doorbell rang, and the kitten leaped off the couch. 

In this sentence, since the words "with a jump and a meow" describes the kitten, it should be placed after that phrase. So the sentence should be: The doorbell rang and the kitten leaped off the couch with a jump and a meow.
