Correct Answer: Possessive


Solution : The correct answer is option 4.

Explanation:

Reflexive pronouns are words that end in self or themselves and are used when a sentence's subject and object are the same. "Myself, yourself, himself, her, oneself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, and themselves" are the nine reflexive pronouns in English.

-Relative Pronoun: In sentences, dependent (or relative) clauses are frequently introduced by a relative pronoun. They can also function as a sentence's sole subject or object. The relative pronouns who, whoever, whom, whomever, that, which, when, where, and whose are on a specific list.

My, mine, our, ours, its, his, her, hers, their, theirs, your, and yours are examples of possessive pronouns. All of these pronouns are expressions of ownership.

When the subject and object of a sentence are the same, reflexive pronouns, which have the ends self or themselves, are used.

The nine reflexive pronouns in English are "myself, yourself, himself, her, oneself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, and themselves."

Dependent (or relative) clauses are frequently introduced by a relative pronoun in sentences.

They may also serve as the only subject or object of a sentence.

There is a specific list of the relative pronouns, including who, whoever, whom, whomever, that, which, when, where, and whose.
