Is the sentence The cake was baked by Mother transitive or intransitive?
This is not really a sentence. It has a passive verb phrase an actor but no non-actor or subject. Passive sentences usually require a verb that takes an object - a transitive verb. So I would say bake is a transitive verb. Some verbs can be both transitive or non transitive. The bread was baked by mother.

Intransitive verbs do not have a direct object. Car is the direct object of drove, so drove is a transitive verb. Sat is the intransitive verb in that sentence.
What type of verb precedes a direct object?
The direct object normally follows the verb. The verb that precedes the direct object is not a specific type. A good way to see if the phrase following the verb is a direct object is to use the "passive test". Ex. Active voice: The pitcher threw the ball. Passive voice: The ball was thrown by the pitcher. Since we are able to make it passive we can see "the ball" is the direct object. One way I remember it is by asking "The pitcher threw what? The Ball"
Is the phrase a transitive or intransitive he loyal fights for his king?
The phrase "he loyal fights for his king" is grammatically incorrect. It seems to be a mix of two ideas: "He fights for his king" (transitive) and "He is loyal" (intransitive). If you want to combine them, you can say "He is loyal and fights for his king" to maintain clarity.

Is abound transitive or intransitive?
Intransitive, because it can't take a direct object. In the pond, fish abound. Fish (subject) abound (verb). The pond abounds with fish. Pond (subject) abounds (verb) with fish (prepositional phrase). But never this: The pond abounds fish. Pond (subject) abounds (verb) fish (direct object). That last construction doesn't exist.
What is an intransitive phrase?
An intransitive phrase is a group of words that does not require a direct object to complete its meaning. It typically consists of a verb and any accompanying words, but the verb does not act on an object. For example, "She walks in the park" is an intransitive phrase because "walks" does not require a direct object.
Is the verb die a transitive?
No, the verb 'to die' is intransitive because it cannot take a direct object. Typical uses of 'die' are: 'The patient died/is dying/was dying etc.' (all analysed as subject+verb, i.e S-V). 'The patient died last week' (analysed as subject+verb+adverbial, i.e S-V-A). Even in 'he died a terrible death' where 'died', appears to be transitive, it's actually intransitive because the phrase 'a terrible death' is an adverbial telling us the manner of the patient's death. Hope that helps.
