Correct Answer: The growth of industry has ruthlessly destroyed the environment in this area.


Solution : The correct choice is the third option .

Active voice is the voice where the subject performs the action. When transforming a sentence from passive to active voice, the agent of the action becomes the subject.

The structure of the active voice in the present perfect tense is, " Singular subject + has + adverb + past participle form of the main verb + object + prepositional phrase."

Therefore, the sentence in the active voice is: The growth of industry has ruthlessly destroyed the environment in this area.
