Answer: mopped his brow, exhaled sharply, and picked up his phone
Explanation:
A complete predicate consists of the verb in a sentence and the words that are around the verb that is, the words which modify the verb.
To find the complete predicate, the subject and the verb should be identified first, then one will look at the words which comes after the verb as they make up a complete predicate.

When one is redundant, one basically says the same thing twice or says something that is unnecessary. For instance, it would be redundant to say “wet water” because water, by its nature is wet. Thus, when we look at Option D, the redundancy it contains is “usual custom.” This is redundant because an act that is customary, or is a custom, is so because of its usual practice.
