Answer 2

The ‘angry girl’ sat on the bench throwing rocks at the ‘fluffy birds’ under the tree. On, under are the two prepositions in the sentence. The option 2 is correct.  

A preposition is defined as a relation to another element or word in the clause. In that way, the words on, at, under are the words which express relations. The word ‘on’ expresses the relationship between the girl and the bench.  

The word ‘at’ expresses the relationship between the rocks and fluffy birds. The word ‘under’ expresses the relationship between birds and the tree. So, the option 2 which has on, under is right for prepositions.
