	c) a possessive preposition.
	
	
	d) an adverb
	
	
	a) a passive verb.
	
Explicação:
A verb can be described as transitive or intransitive based on whether it requires an object to express a complete thought or not. A transitive verb is one that only makes sense if it exerts its action on an object. An intransitive verb will make sense without one.
	
	
	
	 
		
	
		2.
		In which alternative there is an example of tritransitive verb?
	
	
	
	Miss Gold eats a banana every morning.
	
	
	She is baking a cake for him.
	
	
	I bet you a pound that he has forgotten.
	
	
	He gave Mary ten dollars.
	
	
	Some of us thought that the play was very good.
	
Explicação:
A tritransitive verb takes four arguments; one of it is a prepositional phrase: I¿ll trade you this bicycle for your binoculars.
Or a ¿that clause¿: I bet you a pound that he has forgotten.
Subject + two objects + that clause or prepositional clause.

	Transitive verbs have direct objects; intransitive verbs do not have direct objects
	
	
	Intransitive verbs always have an implied subject; transitive verbs never utilize an implied subject.
	
Explicação:
Some verbs do not require any further elements to make their meaning complete: although there may be further elements in the sentence, these are not essential. This is called intransitive complementation. It involves verbs such as: appear, arrive, come, cough, decrease, die, disappear, drown, fall, go, happen, lie (tell an untruth), matter, rain, rise, sneeze, snow, stop, swim, work.
Transitive verbs require a direct object.
