English

SpyIntel [72]3 years ago

Answer:

While the little boy and the pet dog raced  ahead, the husband and wife found  themselves comparing the possible  effectiveness of each style against its  appearance...  

Explanation:

An adverbial phrase is a phrase or group of words that modifies the verb, adverb, and adjectives in a sentence. And if an adverbial phrase begins any sentence, then it should always be followed by a comma.

Among the given sentences, the second sentence contains an adverbial phrase that is set off with a comma. The adverbial phrase is <em>"while the little boy and the pet dog raced ahead" </em>which is then followed by a comma, separating it from the independent clause of the remaining sentence.

Thus, the correct answer is the second option/ sentence.
