A participle is a type of verb that can function as a(n) **adjective** in a sentence. Participles can be present or past participles. Present participles always end in **-ing**, and past participles end in **-ed** unless they are irregular verbs.

The word that is the past tense of an irregular verb is **hidden**. "Hidden" is the past participle of the irregular verb "hide." The other options ("tapped," "squawked," and "aimed") are regular verbs that follow the standard rule of adding -ed for their past tense forms.

The participle that functions as an adjective in the sentence is **walking**. It describes the noun "path."

The sentence that contains a participle functioning as a verb is **"The blinking sign warns drivers of a sharp curve ahead."** In this sentence, "blinking" is a present participle that modifies "sign," but here "warns" is the main verb.

However, if you're looking for a sentence where a participle is directly functioning as a verb, it would be more accurate to say that "cooked" in **"Mateo will only eat cooked carrots."** also involves a participle ("cooked") but modifies "carrots."

Since "cook" in this context does not act as the main verb but describes the state of "carrots," your focus on participles as verbs might lead to confusion!

Nonetheless, if we strictly talk about participles as modifiers, the participle functioning in “blinking” best fits.

So, the answer is **"The blinking sign warns drivers of a sharp curve ahead."**
