The correct answer is **D. a set of two or more words that includes a noun and a modifier and modifies a sentence**.
An absolute phrase typically consists of a noun or pronoun and its modifiers, and it adds information to a sentence but does not have a subject-verb pair, allowing it to modify the entire sentence rather than a specific part of it.
