The sentence "She likes a sunny location" has been shortened by c) phrase.

* Prefix: A prefix is added to the beginning of a word (e.g., "un-" in "unhappy").

* Adjective: An adjective describes a noun (e.g., "sunny" in the original sentence).

* Phrase: A phrase is a group of words that functions as a unit but doesn't have a subject and verb. "Sunny location" is a phrase.

* Connective: A connective joins words, phrases, or clauses (e.g., "and," "but," "because").

The original sentence could have been: "She likes a location that is sunny." The phrase "sunny location" replaces the longer clause "that is sunny."
