Stepping from the embrace, she smoothly extracts the broom from my grip. Which type of phrase is the underlined portion of the sentence? A. prepositional phrase B. verb phrase C. noun phrase D. participle phrase

A). Participle phrase.

Step-by-step explanation:

'Participle phrases' are defined as the phrases that consist of a participle(present or past) followed by modifiers and their object plus any/or complements. These phrases primarily function as adjectives by providing information about a noun or pronoun in the sentence.

In the given sentence, the underlined portion('stepping from the embrace') is a participle phrase as it begins with a participle('present as it ends with 'ing') followed by the modifier prepositional phrase 'from the embrace'(as an adverb). It is functioning as an adjective as it modifies the pronoun 'she' in the sentence. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
