Answer:

A) A part of a speech that can be substituted for a noun.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is word that replaces a noun. For example : Ben gave a pencil to Jane. The noun Ben is replaced by "He" and the noun Jane is replaced with "her". So the result of using pronouns is "He gave a pencil to her."

Hope you understand!!
