Explanation:

A participle is a verb form that does not act as a verb in a sentence but as an adjective, that is, a word describing or modifying nouns. There are two types of participles: the present participle, which ends in -ing, like winning, and the past participle which is formed from the past tense of a verb, and therefore they usually have the endings -ed, -d, -t, -en, or -n, such as swollen and broken.

Therefore, the sentence that uses the word “training” as a participle is “C” because in here the word is giving us information about the noun “wheels.”

the answer is actually c   i just got done with the test.
