The description that correctly defines active voice is:

• subject of a sentence does the action

In active voice, the subject performs the action of the verb, as opposed to passive voice, where the subject receives the action.

Answer

The correct description of active voice is:

  • voice used in writing in which the subject of a sentence does the action.

In active voice, the subject is the one performing the action rather than receiving it.
