Reference explanation:
Correct answer: GET
Knowledge: Relative clauses
A. that: instead of “which/ who/ whom” in defining relative clauses; before “that” there is no comma.
B. who: replaces a noun indicating a person; plays the role of subject/object in a relative clause
C. which: replaces nouns of things; plays the role of subject/object in a relative clause
D. whose: is used to show the possessiveness of nouns indicating people or things, usually instead of possessive adjectives indicating people or possessive forms (‘s)
My youngest son: my youngest son => person noun; Indefinite relative clause => use “who”
