Answer 1

To convert sentences to passive voice, the subject becomes the receiver of the action, and the action is described using a form of 'to be' plus the past participle, often including 'by' to introduce the actor.

Step-by-step explanation:

When converting sentences from active voice to passive voice, the subject is usually receiving the action rather than doing it, and the verb is accompanied by a form of the verb 'to be' followed by the past participle of the verb. Additionally, the preposition 'by' is often introduced before the actor of the sentence.
