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.

What is the relationship between law/organization and religion?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Religion can be a central part of one’s identity. The word religion comes from a Latin word that means “to tie or bind together.” Modern dictionaries define religion as “an organized system of beliefs and rituals centering on a supernatural being or beings.” To belong to a religion often means more than sharing its beliefs and participating in its rituals; it also means being part of a community and, sometimes, a culture.

The Egyptologist, who had worked with the business person, was convinced that King Tut's tomb was in the Valley of the Kings.
Ivanshal [37]
Since nothing is underlined, I am going to make an educated guess that the underlines clause is "who had worked with the business person". If that is the case, the correct answer would be D - adjective clause. It is a relative clause, to be more precise, because it starts with a relative pronoun "who", but that is a part of adjectival clauses, so that is the correct answer.
