Verified Answer :

You didn't say which ones were underlined but i can discuss all the prepositions here.

a. It was a sunny day, but Jane remained indoors.
There is no preposition in this sentence. "Indoors" is an adverb.

here "to" is a preposition.

there is no preposition here. "For" is sometimes a preposition, but here it's a conjunction.
