Answer:

(Infinitive Phrase) to the winds, (Gerund) Considering, (Verbal phrase) -

Threw.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering is the Gerund in this sentence.

Threw is the Verbal Phrase

"Juana, considering the matter, threw caution to the winds."

I cant write the same explantion because I forgot but, i hope you got all the notes that I did for you down..

But I can try to summarize

Verbal Phrase- It has to do with the action. For example: to the shopping mall or to the Candy Store.

Gerund- Always ends in -ing and if the verb is put in past tense then it ends in -ed.

Participle Phrase: A participle is a verbal ending in -ing (present) or -ed, -en, -d, -t, -n, or -ne (past) that functions as an adjective, modifying a noun or pronoun. A participial phrase consists of a participle plus modifier(s), object(s), and/or complement(s).

If this gets deleted again please take a picture before so you can remember.

I hope this helped!
