Answer:

The correct answer is 'the direct object'.

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct objects are placed at the end of a sentence, after the main verb. This kind of verb must be a transitive verb. Some examples of transitive verbs are: eat, read, watch.

I didn't eat those cookies!

I usually read books on Sundays.

I just watched both dogs fighting each other.

The words and phrases in bold are the different direct objects of the transitive verbs placed right before them. Direct objects can be nouns or noun phrases in most cases.
