## Step 1The problem involves identifying the sentence that uses pronouns correctly. The pronouns in question are nominative (used as subjects) and objective (used as objects). ## Step 2In sentence 1, the correct sentence is "Do Kendra and him know that a fish cannot move its tongue?" Here, "him" is used correctly as an object of the verb "know".## Step 3In sentence 2, the correct sentence is "It was I who claimed that Bessie Smith is the greatest female blues singer of all time." Here, "I" is used correctly as a subject of the verb "claimed".## Step 4In sentence 3, the correct sentence is "Our science teacher showed Paul and them how Neanderthals and Cro-Magnons lived, and pointed out the areas where fossils of each have been found." Here, "them" is used correctly as an object of the verb "showed".## Step 5In sentence 4, the correct sentence is "My grandmother gave her Tiffany lamp, which was decorated with dazzling aquamarine, to my brother and her as a wedding present." Here, "her" is used correctly as an object of the verb "gave".
