A participial phrase starts with a participle, which is a verb + ing, for example - dancing. An infinitive is to + verb, for example, to dance.
Having this in mind, the sentence that uses both a participial and an infinitive phrase is C. Annoying me into a rude awakening, the alarm continued to buzz loudly in my ear.
