Your question is incomplete because you have not provided the underlined pronoun. Thus, the complete sentence is the following:

Nathan told Nadir that <u>his</u> nerves would impact the horse's ability to carry them through the competition.

Answer:

Case: nominative

Reference: ambiguous

Sentence rewritten: After seeing that Nadir was nervous, Nathan told him that nerves would impact the horse's ability to carry them through the competition.      

Explanation:

The possessive adjective his functions as nominative case because the noun phrase his nerves functions as the subject of a verb. Besides, it creates ambiguity because it is not clear whose nerves it refers to - Nathan or Nadir's. As a result, it is necessary to rewrite the sentence to clarify whose nerves affect the horse's performance.

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

Using binoculars, we saw three lion cubs

Explanation:

A misplaced modifier occurs when a word or a phrase is incorrectly placed in a sentence that separates it from the word it modifies, making the sentence have a different meaning.

Therefore, correcting the misplaced modifier in the sentence "We saw three lion cubs using binoculars", we change it to "Using binoculars, we saw three lion cubs"

This is because, from the first sentence, it seems like the cubs were using binoculars, when in actual sense, it was the speaker that used binoculars to see the cubs.
