Answer:

"Flags Flying In The Sniff Wind" is a NOUN PHRASE.

It is not appositive phrase.

Step-by-step explanation:

Group of words which function as a noun are known as Noun Phrases.

It is not appositive because appositive phrases rename the noun next to it.

For example: "Ben is teaching in school" is a noun phrase but it becomes appositive if it is this way: "Ben, an English lecturer is teaching in school".

Therefore, "Flags Flying In The Sniff Wind" is a NOUN phrase and NOT APPOSITIVE.
