Explanation:

You haven't pointed out which words are underlined, but I found a similar question online and underlined them for you.

A phrase is a group of words with a certain meaning. A group of words that consists of a preposition, its object, and words that modify the object is called a prepositional phrase.

A clause is a group of words that represents a unit smaller than the sentence. It must contain a verb (predicate), but it usually contains a subject, as well. Some clauses can stand alone as sentences (independent clauses), while some can't (dependent clauses) as they don't express a complete thought.
