Solution

The correct option is A Is Basketball being played by Jordan?
While changing the voice from active to passive or vice versa, it should be noted that the meaning of the sentence should not change. Options B) and C) change the meaning of the original sentence. Hence, they are incorrect.
Option D) also changes the meaning of the given sentence since it questions whether or not Jordan wishes to play basketball, not if he is playing at the moment.
Option A) is the correct option that maintains the meaning of the given active voice statement.
