Which pronoun would you use to indicate a specific group of items with 'these' or 'those'?

• A. Interrogative Pronoun
• B. Demonstrative Pronoun
• C. Relative Pronoun
• D. Indefinite Pronoun

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is identifying pronouns that point to a specific group of items. These or those are demonstrative pronouns used to indicate particular things in view or already known to the speaker and listener. They replace a noun phrase that names a definite set, with distance helping to show proximity—these for items near, those for items farther away. That makes the reference clear without repeating the noun.

Interrogative pronouns ask questions like which or what; they don’t point to a definite group. Relative pronouns introduce a clause about a noun (the cookies that I baked). Indefinite pronouns refer to nonspecific people or things (someone, anything). So the use of these or those fits best with the role of a demonstrative pronoun.
