The participial phrase in the sentence <em>The car parked in the driveway is leaking oil and making a mess</em> is 'parked in the driveway'. Participial phrases begin either with a past or a present participle. Present participles contain an -ing.

Which words in the sentence make up the adjective phrase? Which word does the adjective phrase modify?
pychu [463]
An adjective is a descriptive word, it describes a noun, which is a 'name' word (i.e: the name of an item, the name of a place; e.g: shoes are the name of the things you wear on your feet, 'shoe's' are the noun)

the 'descriptive' word, the adjective, is something which tells you more about the noun.

therefore, the answer should be: a) with the pink spots; modifies butterfly

because 'with the pink spots' describes the noun, the 'butterfly'.

sattari [20]

Answer:

2. Any person whose last name begins with the letters A through M should join the first line.

Among the given examples, sentence 2 uses correct grammar. This is because 'whose' introduces the relative clause that helps readers understand the possessive nature of the nouns in the sentence.

Thus, the correct answer is option 2.
