To determine whether a sentence is in the passive voice, you need to understand the difference between active and passive voice. In active voice, the subject of a sentence performs the action stated by the verb. For example, "John ate the apple." Here, "John" is the subject and he is performing the action of eating the apple.
In passive voice, on the other hand, the subject of a sentence is acted upon by the verb. For example, "The apple was eaten by John." Here, "the apple" is the subject, and it is being acted upon by the verb "was eaten".
So, in the given options, option B is the correct answer: "The subject is acted upon by the verb."
Passive doesn't mean "past."
Passive is the opposite of "active."
