Explanation:

Phrasal verbs are verbs that consist of a main verb and one or more particles (prepositions or adverbs). Separable phrasal verbs are those in which the particle can be separated from the main verb and placed elsewhere in the sentence, while nonseparable phrasal verbs are those in which the particle cannot be separated from the main verb.

Example of a separable phrasal verb: “I will pick up my friend at the airport.” The particle “up” can be separated from the main verb “pick” and placed elsewhere in the sentence, such as “I will pick my friend up at the airport.”

Example of a nonseparable phrasal verb: “I will look after my sister’s cat.” The particle “after” cannot be separated from the main verb “look” and placed elsewhere in the sentence.
