Answer 2

Resposta:

a) yours

b) mine

d) her

e) your

f) theirs

g) our

h) my

i) her

j) their

Explicação:

Você só pode usar my, your, her, our, their quando tem um substantivo depois.

Pelo lado contrário, você só poderá usar mine, yours, hers, ours, theirs quando não tiver um substantivo depois; quando ele for dito antes (the black CAR is MINE) ou quando for dito em uma pergunta e o substantivo estiver subentendido (Whose book is this? It's mine)

Lembrando que his e its é igual para ambas as situações descritas acima.
