To provide an accurate answer, I need to see the specific sentence you're referring to. Please share it, and I'll help identify what might be missing.
When an opening modifier does not modify any word in the sentence, it is called a "dangling modifier." This occurs when the word or phrase intended to be modified is either missing or unclear, leading to confusion about what the modifier is referring to. To correct a dangling modifier, the sentence can be restructured to clearly link the modifier to the appropriate subject.

A sentence missing a subject or a verb is a fragment.

This sentence is in the active voice. The subject of the sentence (pen) is performing the action of being missing.
Example sentence - We were misinformed on the whereabouts of the missing documents.
The sentence "The pen was missing" is in passive voice, as the subject (the pen) is receiving the action (being missing) rather than performing it.
