Answer:

A. Crawled

Explanation:

You are given the sentence:

The baby crawled slowly toward her favorite toy.

Your <u>subject/direct object</u> in this sentence, is the baby. Next you ask yourself, <em>what is the baby doing?</em> Crawling. This is your <u>verb</u>. The next thing to do, is recognize your adverb, which in this case, would be the word slowly. This would be a descriptive adverb, that <u>many would mistake for an adjective</u>, but looking into the sentence, we see that the adjective is the word, favorite, as it <u>modifies the noun</u>, toy. An <u>adverb </u>modifies a <em>noun</em>, a <em>verb</em>,  an <em>adjective</em>, or <em>another adverb</em>. The word slowly in this sentence is modifying the verb crawled.

How did the baby crawl? Slowly.
