Passive voice is a type of sentence in which the subject receives the action instead of becoming the doer. Here, the focus will be on the object, and there will be a little focus on the subject or doer. I.e. A mango was eaten by Ram. In this sentence, the emphasis is on Mango instead of Ram.

Active voice is a structure of a sentence where the doer is the subject that performs the action expressed by the verb. Here, the emphasis will be on the doer, making the sentence clear and direct.

For example, Siya was riding a bicycle. Here the emphasis is on Siya instead of on the bicycle.

The passive voice writing style is suitable for formal writing, scientific reports or any such situation where the subject is less important than the object, like the experiment was conducted. It highlights the action or result. In such style of writing object is doer instead of subject.
