Explanation:

Masculine, feminine, neuter and common gender are the four types of gender nouns. The use of gender nouns helps in distinguishing the gender of the subject being talked about in the sentence. The pronouns are used according to the gender of the nouns. In the above sentences, the gender of the underlines words was asked to change and rewrite accordingly. Along with the gender of the particular word, the pronoun used to denote them was also required to be changed. An agreement needs to be established between the noun and the pronoun to make the sentences grammatically correct.
