Correct option is D
Converting Passive to Active Voice:
·
Passive: "Jaundice is caused by drinking contaminated water."
·
Active:
"Drinking contaminated water causes jaundice."
Explanation:
1.
Identify the subject, verb, and object:
· Subject: Jaundice (in passive) → Changes to Drinking contaminated water (in active).
· Verb: "is caused" → Becomes "causes" in active voice.
· Object: Drinking contaminated water (in passive) → Becomes Jaundice (in active).
2.
Use the correct verb tense:
· The passive voice uses
"is caused" (present simple passive).
· The active form should be
"causes" (present simple active).
Other options:
·
(a) "caused jaundice" → Incorrect because it changes the tense to past.
·
(b) "can cause jaundice" → Incorrect because "can" is not in the original sentence.
·
(c) "has caused jaundice" → Incorrect because it changes the tense to present perfect.
Thus, the correct answer is
(d) "Drinking contaminated water causes jaundice."
