Correct Answer: The balls have been thrown by Moti.


Solution : The correct choice is the second option .

Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who performs the action. Hence, the object in the active sentence becomes the subject in the passive voice.

The structure of the passive in the case of the present perfect tense is: "Plural object + have +been + past participle form of the main verb + 'by' followed by the agent of the action."

Therefore, the sentence in the passive voice is: "The balls have been thrown by Moti."
