Sentence 5

'Dangling modifier' is characterized as the grammatical error in which a modifying phrase is vaguely qualifying a word or phrase instead of the word or phrase it actually intends to modify.

In sentence 4, the modifier phrase 'looking...band' is wrongly modifying 'the watch' instead of Rebekka. Thus, it exemplifies a dangling modifier.

'Misplaced modifier' is the error in which the modifier is inadequately isolated from the main word it describes/modifies.

In sentence 1, the phrase 'on her way home' is inaptly placed before the prepositional phrase 'from practice' which confuses the meaning of the sentence.

The last sentence inaptly uses the modifier 'badly' after the verb that creates a grammatical error in the sentence.

Thus, sentence 5 contains a 'troublesome modifier.'
