<span>There is no italicized pronoun, but since there is only one present in the sentence, I give you this answer:

When chicken eggs are hatched, <em>they</em> are weak and barely able to move around.</span> They here should refer to the "chicks" However, in the sentence it looks like it refers to the "chicken eggs". This is incorrect. The pronoun, then, is an (2) implied antecedent and needs to be stated. Instead of the given sentence, one should say: When chicken eggs are hatched, the chicks are weak and barely able to move around.

Change "They have made him a mayor" into passive voice

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer & Explanation:

Passive voice is used when we want the emphasis to fall on the object of the sentence instead of the subject. He was made a mayor is the passive voice construction. in this sentence, the passive voice shows we care more about the fact that "he" is a mayor now, which is the point we want to get across.
