Answer 2

The correct answer is option D) Collecting groceries, the store got busie and busier.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dangling modifiers are mistakes within a sentence that occur when the sentence includes a modifier but forgets the target. Therefore, the modifier dangles since it has no target to modify.

In the example provided, the modifier "collecting groceries" does not have a target to modify (Who is collecting groceries?).
