Question : Identify which type of pronoun the underlined word is:

Option 1: Personal
Option 2: Relative
Option 3: Reflexive
Option 4: Possessive
Correct Answer: Personal
Solution : The correct answer is option 1.
Explanation:
Personal pronoun: A personal pronoun is a brief word we use to simply replace a person's given name. We can see the grammatical person, gender, number, and case of the noun it replaces using any of the personal pronouns in English. Personal pronouns include I, you, He, She, It, We, They, Me, Him, Her, Us, and They.
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.
Reflexive pronouns are words that end in self or themselves and are used when a sentence's subject and object are the same. The nine reflexive pronouns in English are I, you, him, her, myself, it, ourselves, ourselves, and yourselves.
Possessive Pronoun: The possessive pronouns are mine, yours, ours, it's, his, hers, theirs, theirs, and theirs. All of these expressions of ownership.
It is therefore obvious from the foregoing explanation that "it" is a personal pronoun.
