Question

which sentence is in passive voice?
animal control is capturing an enormous alligator in our backyard right now!
the enormous alligator in our backyard is being captured by animal control right now!

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To determine passive voice, we check the structure. Passive voice typically uses "be + past participle" and shows the action done to the subject. The first sentence ("Animal control is capturing...") is active (subject does action). The second sentence ("The enormous alligator... is being captured by...") has the subject (alligator) receiving the action (captured) and uses "is being captured" (be + past participle) with the agent "by animal control", fitting passive voice structure.

Answer:

The enormous alligator in our backyard is being captured by animal control right now!
