Verbs requiring an object are transitive verbs. In the sentence, "I threw the ball," threw is transitive. By contrast, in the sentence "I run," run is intransitive, because it does not require an object.
Many verbs can be transitive or intransitive, depending upon the context. For example, in "I run the course each morning," run is now a transitive verb, because it has an object. (The object, by the way, is the thing being acted upon. The subject is the thing doing the acting.)

Is the verb apologize transitive?
It is. It requires an object. Although, I suppose a better way to state it would be "giving an apology to someone." Apologize is technically trivalent. It requires a subject, namely, someone doing the giving. It always requires an object, namely, the apology being given. (although it is not specifically mentioned in the verb "to apologize," it is still an object.) Finally, it requires an indirect object, a "goal," if you will, namely, the person to whom you are giving the apology. In the verb "to apologize," the specific object (the apology) is included IN the verb. Thus one only sees the subject and the indirect object in the verb "to apologize."
