Yes to both questions.

'The heir apparent solemnly mounted the throne.'

heir - noun

apparent - adjective

solemnly - adverb

Rover's answer is actually fantastic, move. Moreover, note that you're not supposed to ask people to do your homework for you here.

first of all it is NOT a HOMEWORK
I usually find different types of classifications of collocations except for these types and by the way if you dont have an answer (birdeen's call) just don't wast my time
