Explanation:
Noun Phrase is a phrase that has a noun or pronoun as its head or performs the same grammatical function as a noun.
A prepositional phrase is a group of words consisting of a preposition, its object, and any words that modify the object.
Verb Phrase is a syntactic unit composed of at least one verb and its dependents—objects, complements and other modifiers—but not always including the subject.
An Appositive Phrase redefines, renames, or modifies a noun with essential or nonessential information.
