Answer 1

Hint: This question is about prepositions. Prepositions are words used in a sentence to link different nouns, pronouns, or phrases with one another. There are different types of prepositions and each has its own unique use. Keep that in mind when attempting these types of questions.

Complete answer:
Let us analyze the given options:
Option (A) whose: Option ‘A’ is incorrect because it is a possessive pronoun and is used when we talk about belongingness. This is not the case with the given sentence.
Option (B) which: Option ‘B’ is incorrect because it is an interrogative pronoun and that’s not applicable in the given sentence.
Option (C)that: Option ‘C’ is correct because we use it when we refer back to something already spoken about.
Option (D) None of the above: One of the given options is the correct answer therefor this is the incorrect answer.

Thus the correct answer is option ‘C’.

Note: Tips for relative pronouns are as follows:
- Relative pronouns must always be in agreement with the noun of the sentence it replaces.
- Relative pronouns work as the opener for dependent clauses.
- Use “who” before verbs.
- Use “whom” after prepositions.
- “That” never takes a comma, “which” always does.
- “Where” can only be used for places and “when” can only be used for times.
