Answer 1

The correct answer is demonstrative. These pronouns are used to indicate at what position the subject is located and in what number. Kindly refer to the following details:

When the object is singular and it is near to the speaker, you use “this”; when it is plural, you use “these”. When the object is far and it is singular, you use “that”; when in plural form, you use “those”.
