Solution

The correct option is A simple
The correct answer is C - simple prepositions. Prepositions such as on, in, from and to are called simple prepositions because they are used in simple sentences.
For example: The cat is on the table.
Option A is incorrect because phrase prepositions are groups of words that are used together as prepositions.
Option B is wrong because compound prepositions are prepositions formed by prefixing a preposition to a noun, adjective or adverb.
Option D is wrong because participle prepositions are prepositions that end in 'ing.'
