The category of a phrase as a whole is determined by the head of the phrase. The head is the most important word in the phrase and determines the overall syntactic category of the phrase. For example, in a noun phrase, the head is a noun, in a verb phrase, the head is a verb, and so on. The other words in the phrase modify or complement the head, but the head ultimately determines the category of the phrase.
