The correct answer is D. prepositional phrase.In the sentence "As the man was crossing the road, he fell," the underlined phrase "As the man was crossing the road" is a prepositional phrase. A prepositional phrase begins with a preposition and includes a noun or pronoun that serves as the object of the preposition. In this case, "As" is the preposition, and "the man was crossing the road" is the object of the preposition.
