The correct answer is **c. the manner in which the verb expresses an idea in a sentence.**
Verb mood indicates the attitude of the speaker toward the action of the verb, such as whether it is a statement of fact (indicative), a command (imperative), or a wish or hypothetical situation (subjunctive).
