Question

All of the players forgot____ jerseys.

Options
  • A

    his

  • B

    her

  • C

    there

  • D

    their

Explanation
The correct answer is

their

because it is the plural possessive pronoun that indicates ownership by the plural noun 'players'. Since 'players' refers to more than one individual, a plural pronoun is required. The options

his

and

her

are both singular and do not match the plural subject. Meanwhile,

there

is an adverb that does not function as a possessive pronoun, making it an unsuitable choice in this context. This option is singular and masculine, which does not agree with the plural subject 'players'. This option is singular and feminine, which also does not agree with the plural subject 'players'. This option is an adverb indicating location and does not fit grammatically in the context of the sentence. This option is the correct plural possessive pronoun that appropriately agrees with the plural subject 'players'.
