The preposition is "over" and the phrase "over the tree" is an adverbial phrase telling where the rabbit jumped. (unless the tree has fallen to the ground, that is quite a leap)
It can be, when it is a direction. An example is "we went up in a balloon." It can also be an adjective or preposition (up the tree), and colloquially a noun or verb.
Assuming the shadows are measured at the same time of day and that the trees are on level ground, the tree with a 20-foot shadow is a quarter longer than the tree with a 16-foot shadow. Adding a quarter of the height to 12 feet makes it 15 feet tall. Alternatively use the tangent ratio which will be opposite (height of 1st tree) over adjacent (its shadow) and multiply it by the adjacent of the 2nd tree: (12/16)*20 = 15 feet tall.

Your best bet here would be to use trigonometry. One stand a given distance away from the tree and sight the top of the tree, say with a clinometer, to measure the angle of elevation. Then knowing the angle and the distance you are from the tree, the height of the tree can be calculated with a tangent function.
No, it is not an adverb. The word tree is a noun, or verb (to chase up a tree). The adjective is "treed" (active or passive) but there is no adverb form.
No. A verb is something you do i.e. I jumped. Where jumped is the verb. A preposition links nouns pronouns and phrases to the sentence i.e. I jumped on the table. "On" would be the preposition. Something to help you with prepositions is saying the sentence. The squirrel went ______ the tree. You can use beneath, around, above, etc. and all would be a preposition.
Yes, "down" can function as a preposition when it shows location or direction in relation to a noun. For example, "The cat climbed down the tree."
No. Unlock is a verb.Think of a preposition as anything a bird can do to a tree. A bird can sit IN a tree, it can fly THROUGH the tree, it can be ON a branch, it can sit UNDER the tree, it can fly TO the tree. It cannot sit unlock a tree.
It's a preposition.
The sentence is not a preposition but, it does have a preposition in it: outside.
No, "below" is an adverb or adjective, not a preposition.
birds (subject)tree (object of the preposition in)
Yes. A preposition would be a word that creates a relation from the noun to other words in a sentence. For example, a preposition could indicate all the places a squirrel can be in relation to a tree: A squirrel can be: above, beside, below, inside, on, or by the tree! The following bolded words are objects of the preposition. at noon, beside the tree, under the bed. A preposition plus the object of the preposition is called a prepositional phrase. A person could be in the middle of a doorway. Therefore, middle can be a preposition. -QueenGrammarBee

Yes, "around" can function as a preposition in a sentence, indicating movement or location in the vicinity of something. For example, in the sentence "The cat is playing around the tree," "around" is used as a preposition indicating the location of the cat in relation to the tree.

To find the prepositional phrase in a sentence, identify the preposition first. Prepositional phrases consist of the preposition, its object, and any modifiers in between. The prepositional phrase usually provides information about location, time, direction, or relationship between nouns or pronouns.
