Which of the following is a relative pronoun?

  1. Anyone

  2. Whatever

  3. They

  4. Which

The correct answer is: Which

The correct answer is that "which" is a relative pronoun because it is used to introduce relative clauses that provide more information about a noun mentioned earlier in the sentence. For instance, in the sentence “The book, which I read last week, was fascinating,” "which" introduces the clause that tells us more about "the book." Relative pronouns, including "which," serve to connect a dependent clause to a main clause, adding detail or clarification about the noun. Other relative pronouns include "who," "whom," "that," and "whose." The other options, while they may serve different grammatical functions, do not categorize as relative pronouns.
