Answer:

Past Simple Tense: <em>Talks about a completed action in time before </em><em>now</em>

  • She washed her car
  • I saw a horror movie yesterday

Past continuous tense: <em>Past continuous </em><em>tense </em><em>is </em><em>formed </em><em>from </em><em>the </em><em>past </em><em>using </em><em>'to </em><em>be' </em><em>with </em><em>the </em><em>base </em><em>of </em><em>the </em><em>main </em><em>verb </em><em>ending </em><em>with </em><em> </em><em>'ing'</em>

<em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>(</em><em><u>Subject </u></em><em><u>+</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>was/</u></em><em><u>were </u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>+</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>base </u></em><em><u>+</u></em><em><u>ing</u></em><em><u>)</u></em>

Change this following passive voice into active voice.. laxmi is loved by her parents.​
Talja [164]

The parents love laxmi, if this many words taken out for the active voice isn't sustainable, and you only need to know how to do an active voice...it's simply the passive voice in reverse. So for an active voice it would be the doer of the action, followed by the action, to the receiver of the action

Is a tiger a vertebrate mammal?
Ede4ka [16]
Yes a tiger is a vertebrate mammal.
The order of a tiger's life cycle is from a newborn to a child tiger to a fully developed adult tiger. Mostly it all depends on the mother to teach the litter of cubs which are 2-3 cubs how to hunt and be ready to live and survive in the wild.
The tigers striped coat helps him blend in with the sunlight filtering from the tree tops to the jungle floor.
