Answer:

The appropriate pronoun for the exercise:

_____ oranges look much better than the others.

Is:

A: Those

Step-by-step explanation:

The pronoun them is used to identifying a group of people in the third person. It has a singular form They and plural form them.

The pronoun those is used to identify a group of objects in the third person. It has a singular form These and a plural form Those. Now, because we are talking about oranges, the proper pronoun is those. Instead of them, because the oranges are not people.
