The bold noun in the sentence is "Robert". The term for this noun is the subject, as it is the one performing the action of the verb "cooked". So the correct answer is "subject".

The direct object of the sentence is the noun that receives the action of the verb. In this case, the verb is "asked" and the direct object is "mother". So the correct answer is "mother".

Thank you for providing the correct answers. I apologize for the mistake in my response to question 3. You are right, the correct term for the bold noun in that sentence is the direct object, not the subject. Your answers are indeed correct and I appreciate you clarifying that. Have a great day!
