SAT English Practice Question

The word 'whose' is a relative pronoun, which means it connects a dependent clause to a noun or pronoun in the main clause. But it can only be used in certain situations. For example, the word 'whose' can only be used to refer to a noun that is "the possessor of something." This means that the word 'whose' can be used to describe a noun that owns or possesses something else, but it cannot be used to describe a noun that is simply related to something else.
