Participial phrase:Seizing the weapon from the intruder

Word modified:he

The participial phrase here is seizing the weapon from the intruder. 
Participles look like verbs, and they are formed by adding -ing to the verb (for example, eating, sleeping, seizing, in this case, etc). They look the same as gerunds - however, whereas gerunds are used as nouns, participles are used as either adjectives, or adverbs. Here, the phrase is used as an adverb.

Given that the phrase is used as an adverb here, the word it modifies is ran. 
Adverbs modify verbs, meaning that they explain them in more details. Here, you can ask the question - How did he run quickly? And the answer would be - Seizing the weapon from the intruder. The phrase explains the verb.

What is the primary characteristic of constructive conflict?
nadezda [96]

Answer:

A). Concentrates on issues, not people.

Explanation:

Constructive conflict is defined as a conflict that aims to discover the cause or reason for the conflict is by proffering a unanimously accepted solution to resolve it.

As per the question, such conflicts would 'focus on issues instead of people' by identifying a specific issue, discussing the sources that have led to that particular issue, problem, or conflict and this mutual discussion serves to provide a concerted solution to the issue. This is the reason why it is considered as 'constructive' due to its positive and effective approach to bringing a solution to the issue. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the answer.

Describe a character in a series/movie that you idolise thoroughly. You can talk about how they dress, speak, walk, etc.​
Nezavi [6.7K]
Parties are often preceded by fun questions, like what to give? Who to bring (if you have a plus one, that is)? When to arrive? And, crucially, what to wear? Most of us don’t just happen to have a floor-length silk gown or a tailcoat hanging around in our closet, waiting for the day our Met Gala invite finally arrives. But would that even be the right kind of thing to wear to such an event? We’ve got answers, and options, for every possible occasion on your social calendar.
