Answer:

In the first-person POV, the narrator is the person whose POV is read. In this POV, you can look into their thoughts and feelings, but no one else's. In the second-person POV, the narrator is a distant person, and the POV is yours. So, you can only look into your own feelings. In the third-person omniscient POV, the narrator is a distant person, and the POV is that same distant person... but the person can look into every character's thoughts and feelings. In the third-person limited POV, the narrator is a distant person, and the POV is that same distant person... and the person can look into only the main character's thoughts and feelings.

Step-by-step explanation:

The three POVs are all different, so you have to explain how each POV lets the reader see into a character's feelings and thoughts. You must also include the fact that there are two types of third-person POV, and those are different.
