Answered by Ms. Sue
Which words are italicized?

Answered by matt
senior
Answered by Ms. Sue
The single word, <i>senior</i> is the object of the preposition "by."
Answered by matt
so it would be nominative absolute??
Answered by Ms. Sue
No.

Are you sure there are no other italicized words?

Answered by matt

Answered by matt
its past participial phrase
Answered by Ms. Sue
Yep. {Shaking head!}

<i>Headed by a senior</i> is a past participial phrase. It modifies the subject, "group."
