Cevap

Having thoroughly reviewed the forensic evidence, the investigator presented a comprehensive report to the commission.
The sentence reading 'Having thoroughly reviewed the forensic evidence, the investigator presented a comprehensive report to the commission' is grammatically correct because the introductory participial modifier logically modifies 'the investigator'. Furthermore, the adverb 'thoroughly' and adjective 'comprehensive' are used accurately in formal context.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the intro participial phrase
The phrase 'Having thoroughly reviewed the forensic evidence' functions as an adjectival modifier.
Participial modifiers must logically attach to the noun immediately following the comma.
2
Check subject attachment in each option
In the correct sentence, 'the investigator' immediately follows the introductory modifier because the investigator performed the action of reviewing.
Placing 'a comprehensive report' after the comma creates a dangling modifier, as a report cannot review evidence.
3
Evaluate adjective and adverb choices
'Thoroughly' correctly modifies the verb 'reviewed', and 'comprehensive' accurately describes the report without lexical confusion or unnatural collocation.
Modifiers must be chosen for precise contextual meaning and natural academic register.
