Answer:
Active voice means that a sentence has a subject that acts upon its verb. Passive voice means that a subject is a recipient of a verb's action.In English grammar, verbs have five properties: voice, mood, tense, person, and number; here, we are concerned with voice. The two grammatical voices are active and passive.

Active Voice:
Subject (Doer of the action) + Verb (Action) + Object (Receiver of the action)
For Eg.,
Pankraj found the treasure.
Here, 'Pankraj' is the subject, while 'the treasure' is the object. The 'doer of the action (to find) is a subject. Hence the verb is used in Active Voice.
Passive Voice:
Subject (receiver of the action) + BE (Helping word) + Verb (Action) + Object (Doer of the Action).
For Eg.,
The treasure was found by Pankraj.
Here, 'The treasure' is the suject while 'Pankraj' is a object. The reciever of the action (To find) is the subject. Hence, the verb is used in Passive Voice.
