Explanation:

A modifier is any word or phrase in a sentence that modifies another word by providing more information about it.

An adjectival modifier is nothing more than an adjective placed before a noun to modify it. In the answers above, the adjectival modifiers are, respectively: colorful, young, blue, clear, and older.

An adverbial modifier is also typically an adverb, which modifies a verb, an adjective, or another adverb. This type of modifier provides information on how, when, or where, for example, the action was performed. In the answers above, they are: quickly, insistently, beautifully, brightly, and awfully.
