Answer and Explanation:
A noun phrase includes a noun—a person, place, or thing—and the modifiers which distinguish it.
You can find the noun dog in a sentence, for example, but you don't know which canine the writer means until you consider the entire noun phrase: that dog, Aunt Audrey's dog, the dog on the sofa, the neighbor's dog that chases our cat, the dog digging in the new flower bed.
Modifiers can come before or after the noun. Ones that come before might include articles, possessive nouns, possessive pronouns, adjectives, and/or participles.

Answer:
A noun is the name of a person, place, or thing. A noun phrase must have a noun in it. The only other words in a noun phrase will be modifiers, such as articles, adjectives, and prepositional phrases: “the clean and beautifully-planted garden in the backyard.”
