Question

Which of the following sentences is written in the passive voice?

Answer 3

Answer 4

no because Passive voice indicates that the subject of the sentence (EFFECTS of cyanide) is not the source of the action.

We can turn this example sentence around to say: "[Most people] know well the effects of cyanide."

We cannot do the same with the other sentences. All their subjects are the source of action.

Hope this helps.
