Respuesta :

The sentence which contains a misplaced modifier is:

A. Mr. Swanson folded up the tent and packed it away in a sack

It should be that the phrase folded up must be separated which means that "the tent" must be placed in between them. Therefore the correct form is "folded the tent up".
