Explanation:
Non-finite Verb
- Non-finite verbs function as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs or combine with a finite verb for verb tense.
- Non-finite verbs Include participles, Infinitives, gerunds, other verbs that don't change form when the subject changes.
Participle
- A verbal that is used as an adjective, describes a noun or pronoun, present participles always end in -ing, past participles usually end in -ed.
Gerund
- verb form acting as a noun - always ends in -ing.
Infinitive
- a verb form that is used as a noun, an adjective, or an adverb and is typically preceded by the word to.
Continuation:
Word: She (Pronoun)
- She is a pronoun. It's a noun that refers to another noun or noun phrase anaphorically, although it can't be preceded by a determiner and seldom accepts an attributive adjective. In English, examples are I, you, he, who, me, mine, and so on. It can also be used as a subjective or nominative pronoun. It is most commonly used to begin a statement. It is, however, rarely used as a noun.
Word: Was (Linking Verb)
- The word "was" is a verb, more precisely a linking verb, since it connects the subject to the section of the sentence that offers further information about the topic. Furthermore, this form of the verb "to be" represents a state of being.
Word: Looking (Present Participle)
- Looking is the present participle of look. A participle is a verb that ends in -ing (present) or -ed, -en, -d, -t, -n, or -ne (past) and serves as an adjective, modifying a noun or pronoun. A participial phrase is made up of a participle and one or more modifiers, objects, and/or complements (s).
Word: For (Preposition)
- When used to signify the usage of something, the place where an object or person is going, or the period of time, the word "for" is defined as a preposition.
Word: Her (Pronoun)
- Her is a pronoun in the third person singular. Her is the subject or object of a verb or a preposition. Her is a possessive determiner as well. You refer to a lady, a girl, or a feminine animal with her.
Word: Sister (Noun)
- This word is referring to someone's/something's female sibling. This word is a noun because a word that is a person, place, or thing is classified as this part of speech. The noun sister can be used as either a proper or common noun.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- After looking through this sentence, we can come to one conclusion. Since looking ends in -ing, it is classified as a gerund. Therefore, the word <u><em>looking</em></u> is a non-finite verb.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All the other words in the sentence are not considered or classified as non-finite verb as their word classifications do not match those of the description/definition given of what a non-finite verb is.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
She was <u>looking</u> for her sister.
- NOTE: Verbs with tense are finite, and verbs without tense are nonfinite.

<em>Lord Buddha was born in </em><em>623 B.C.</em>
Explanation:
Siddhartha Gautama, widely known as Lord Buddha (buddha is not a name, but a title, and it means <em>the one who is awake</em>), was born in 623 B.C. in Lumbini, Nepal (which became a sacred place where believers come to pilgrimage). He was a philosopher, meditator, leader of a religious movement, but before all of that, he was a prince from a noble family who decided to explore the world, religion, and reality itself. He preached that one can reach peace through mental discipline - meditation, and he spent his life in an attempt to teach people how to achieve inner peace or enlightenment.
