Hello!

The verb in this sentence is "became" as it indicates the action of the subject (the defendant), which is what he/she did.

Hope this helps!

The correct answer is became.

There are a couple of parts of speech in this sentence:

1. nouns - defendant, cross-examination

2. verb - became

3. adjective - uncomfortable

4. preposition - during

5. article - the

The word to become is a verb, and it is used as a linking verb in the sentence above because it links (or connects) the subject with the predicate adjective that follows.
