All four sentences contain both a noun phrase and a verb phrase. However, if you are looking for one example, here's the breakdown:

  • a. "some dog breeds" (noun phrase) and "have docked tails" (verb phrase)
  • b. "he" (noun phrase) and "sat on my grandmother's favorite armchair" (verb phrase)
  • c. "the pigeons" (noun phrase) and "have not landed on my neighbor's balcony in a long time" (verb phrase)
  • d. "you" (noun phrase) and "can find frogs and insects by the pond if you look closely enough" (verb phrase)

All options are correct in including both a noun phrase and a verb phrase, but if you were to choose just one, you could pick any of the sentences provided.
