Answer 1

D. the object of the sentence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Common nouns mention or describe general, non-specific terms for a person, place, thing, or idea. For example:

-People: mother, father, baby, child, etc.

-Animals: lion, dog, cat, bird, wolf, frog, etc.

-Things: table, bed, etc.

Usually, common nouns are not capitalized unless they begin a sentence.

Therefore, 'frog' is a common noun.
