Correct Answer: Cubs are looked after by tigers till they can hunt on their own.


Solution : The second option is the correct choice.

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 voice in the case of the simple present tense is: " Plural object + are + past participle form of the main verb + 'by' followed by the agent of the action + other information."

Therefore, the correct answer is: "Cubs are looked after by tigers till they can hunt on their own."
