None. They're .target units – their purpose is only to group other units.
But they don't necessarily depend on any .service unit at all – in fact
with local-fs*.target it's the opposite; *services* depend on these
targets, and the targets themselves only depend on mounts.

$ systemctl list-dependencies local-fs.target
local-fs.target
● ├─boot.mount
● ├─home.mount
● ├─tmp.mount
● └─var-lib-machines.mount
