C. Because 'under' is a preposition so the prepositional phrase would be 'under bridges'

A prepositional phrase is a group of words that begins with a preposition and ends in a noun, a pronoun or a nominal phrase (the object of the preposition). The prepositional phrases give us more information about the word (s) they describe
