Izzy · Answer 1

C. whose

Explanation:

A relative pronoun is used to connect a clause or phrase to a noun or pronoun. "Whose" is a relative pronoun. it is used to connect the lunchbox to its owner. The pronouns "I" and "you" are used as subject pronouns because they are the subjects of each independent clause. Mrs. Corcoran is not a pronoun.
