participial phrase
adverb clause
interjection

Answer 1

The correct use of the introductory comma in the sentence "Completely exhausted from their climb, Bill and Rob rested on the ridge." is associated with a **participial phrase**.

In this case, "Completely exhausted from their climb" is a participial phrase that provides additional information about the subject, Bill and Rob. The introductory comma is used to separate the participial phrase from the main clause.
