NOTE: The car ran over the Dog and The army passed by the town.. These two sentences have prepositional phrases, Ran over and passed by, which consist of a verb followed by a preposition. But, in passive voice construction these prepositions change their places and are put before the verb and form a single word with them. i.e. overrun, bypassed.
