From the above passage: Choose the best word for blank (27).
EnglishFill in the Blanks
- Athe
- Btheir
- Cits
Explanation
The sentence refers to Jupiter and four of its moons. The possessive pronoun must agree with 'Jupiter', a singular non-personal noun, so the neuter singular 'its' is required. 'Their' is plural and 'the' does not show possession. Hence 'its' is correct, option (C).
