Best Answer

Direct objects are nouns or pronouns that directly receive the action of the verb. They always answer the question whom or what receives the action verb.

Examples:

Students should do all their homework. ("homework" answers "what")

He gives her a card. (card is a direct object while her is the indirect object.)

The police officer is examining the spy.
