Answer:

B. Transitive

Step-by-step explanation:

A transitive verb is a verb that accepts one or more objects. This contrasts with intransitive verbs, which do not have objects. Transitivity is traditionally thought a global property of a clause, by which activity is transferred from an agent to a patient.

Sweater and Patrick are objects. So, therefore, this is transitive
