Sagot :

A prepositional phrase is a phrase containing a preposition (and which includes a noun). Prepositions are words that express relations (such as spacial or temporal) and which come before the noun. 

In the examples above, there is only one preposition: "under", and because of that only sentence A contains a prepositional phrase.

The answer is A. "Trolls live under bridges; elves do not."
