Could someone help?
Note: not phrasal verbs!
It’s a little short request, won’t you say. I suppose that the request is actually in the title, if not clarify. Interesting question though!
Could you be more specific?
Do you mean things like
- go TO a place
- live IN a street
- walk ALONG a road
Giving a few examples would help to understand what you mean.
I’ve never heard the term “dependent prepositions”! And I have been teaching English for the last thirty years 
What country do they use this term in?

Perhaps it’s not an official term - I think the user means to ask about the specific prep that (usually) starts the clause for a specific verb. Or, regarding nouns, the typical prep that goes with a specific noun.
