Answer 1

Answer: one

Explanation:

A prepositional phrase refers to a group of words that is made up of a preposition, the object, and also the modifier which helps in qualifying the object.

In the question above, we can deduce that the prepositional phrase is "for her birthday". The preposition is "for" which modifies the object.

Therefore, there's just one prepositional phrase in the question above.
