When a sentence includes a participial phrase, the phrase functions as a(n)

When a sentence includes a participial phrase, the phrase functions as an adjective.

A participle phrase will be in the present or past participle. If the participle is present, it will dependably end in ing. A regular past participle will end in an ed. A participle phrase will often include objects and/or modifiers to complete the thought.

Participle phrases always play the role of adjectives, providing description to the sentence.

The answer is "Adjective".

Further Explanation:

A participle phrase refers to a phrase which functions as an adjective but looks like a verb. It adds additional details about the noun in the sentence. Usually, participle phrases are used in newspaper articles and fictional books. The action in the sentence is not explained, while the subject is explained. The participle phrase is made up of verb but it does not function as a verb. It acts as a noun or an adjective in a sentence. They define and modifies the subject of the sentence. A participle phrase either begins with a present participle or a past participle. When it appears as a present participle, the participle phrase will end in 'ing'. When it appears as a past participle, the participle phrase will end in 'ed'.The participle clause is not a part of the main clause of the sentence. When the participle phrase comes in the starting of the sentence, a comma is used to make it set apart from the main clause of the sentence. When a participle phrase is put anywhere in the sentence, it does not create any sense out of it. Rather a sort of misunderstanding appears in the sentence. Usually, gerunds and participle phrases are confused. Gerunds act as nouns in a sentence and they are verb phrases while participle phrases function as adjectives.
