Answer 1

Answer:

A. Who

“Who” is used for people when it acts as the subject of the verb.

Here:

• who → refers to “the man”

• picked → verb

• The man himself did the action.

Why not others?

• Whom → used as an object
  Example: The man whom I met.

• Which → used for things/animals.

• Whose → shows possession.
  Example: The man whose bag was lost.
