A  transitive verb 

B  intransitive verb 

C  Both 'a' and 'b' 

D  Neither 'a' nor 'b' 

Solution

Correct Answer: Option A

The Transitive Verb Recognize a transitive verb when you find one. A transitive verb has two characteristics. First, it is an action verb, expressing a doable activity like kick, want, paint, write, eat, clean, etc. Second, it must have a direct object, something or someone who receives the action of the verb. This is the pattern: Subject + Action Verb + Direct Object Here, took=doable action A tree= direct object. so "took" is a transitive verb.
