Thank you , Ron

Last one ....:)

New world monkeys with their prehensile tails are able to swing through trees without occupying their hands.

here the phrase in bold letters will act as a adverbial phrase. Isn't? As it answers the question HOW?

or is it adjectival phrase, modifying new world monkeys as the prepositional phrase, with their prehensile tails modifies monkeys?
