The correct answer is B, where "her" is the object pronoun. A pronoun is a word used in the place of a noun, such as her, his, etc. An object is the thing that receives either a verb or noun in the sentence. So, in the sentence "I gave her a gift for her birthday," "her" is the object pronoun because she is receiving a gift.
