Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2

A pronoun stands for a specific noun and must agree with that noun, whether singular or plural. For example, when two or more antecedents (nouns) are connected by and, the pronoun is plural and the pronoun should be as well. (Henry and Sara will take their vacations.) A singular pronoun should be used with each, everyone, no, and their variations. (Each student will bring his or her own book.) Use a singular pronoun when two or more singular antecedents are connected by or or nor. (Neither Brandon nor Will can complete his work.) Use pronouns that agree in number with the meaning of collective nouns. (The team has been asked for its contributions.)
