Answer and explanation:

Prepositional phrase is a type of phrase where the main word in the phrase is a preposition.

Depending on its function in the sentence - does it give us wider description (adjective phrase) or does it tell us in what way/where/when something is done (adverb phrase), we will decide whether it is an adjective or adverb phrase.

1.It is a feedback from my teacher.

"from my teacher" - adjective phrase

2.Julie is trapped on the island.

"on the island" - adverb phrase

3.People nowadays cannot live without technology.

"without technology" - adverb phrase

4.Once upon a time, there was a prince that turned into a frog.

"Once upon a time" - adverb phrase

5.My cousin was so courageous driving over the bridge.

"over the bridge" - adverb phrase

6.Aside from drawing, Josh writes excellent stories.

"Aside from drawing" - adjective phrase
