Question

Identify the phrases in the given sentence:
The king wore a crown made of gold and silver.

• A. gold and silver
• B. made of gold and silver
• C. The king wore
• D. a crown

Answer 1

The correct option is B made of gold and silver

Prepositional phrases are a group of words containing preposition which lacks either a verb or a subject. Such phrases always have two basic parts: object and preposition. Prepositions are mostly followed by objects.

Using option B will justify all the above rules. 'made of gold and silver' is a prepositional phrase as 'of' is the preposition and 'gold and silver' are the objects.

Options A, C and D are not prepositional phrases.

Thus, option B is the correct answer.
