Look up the other terms and let me know what you think.

Answer 4

Ah okay, so let me see.
Marcy, please give this pizza to them.
Marcy is the subject, give is the verb, and pizza is the direct object. Who did Marcy give the pizza to? Them.

So it is indirect object. Right? :)

Answer 5

No.

Answer 6

Indirect object is not one of your choices!

Answer 7

An indirect object doesn't have "to" in front of it. Why?

Answer 8

Sorry replying late, I was busy with something else. It would be an object of a preposition then, because the object of a preposition follows a preposition. In this case which is 'to'.

Answer 9

Right.
