Answer:

B) Laughing uproariously, the little girls ran away from the group of boys they'd just attacked with water balloons.

Explanation:

Participle phrases work as adjectives: they start with -<em>ing </em>if it is a present participle, and they begin with a past participle form if it refers to the past. In this case, the participle phrase is<em> laughing uproariously</em>, which provides characterization to the sentence.
