frozen
for thousands
of years
the corpse

The correct answer is D. The corpse

Explanation:

In grammar, a sentence opener refers to a word or set of words that serve as a context or opener from a sentence and usually catch the attention of the reader inviting it to continue, because of this sentence openers are the first word or phrase of a sentence that set topic or context in terms of time, place, etc. of the sentence and are usually separated from the rest of the sentence by a comma (,) or similar. Considering this, in the case of the sentence "Frozen for thousands of years, the corpse was barely recognizable" the section of this sentence that works as an opener is "Frozen for thousands of years" because this part of the sentence set the context in terms of time and introduces the main idea of the sentence without completing the idea which catches the readers' attention and therefore the part section that does not belong to this opener is "the corpse", because this section goes after the opner which is mark by the comma.
