According to an academic style guide, which part of speech is used to create a possessive form of a noun?

Pronouns
Adverbs
Nouns
Possessive adjectives

The correct answer is: Possessive adjectives

When creating a possessive form of a noun in academic writing, possessive adjectives are used. Pronouns, adverbs, and nouns are not used in this context. Pronouns are used to replace nouns, adverbs are used to modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs, and nouns are used to name a person, place, thing, or idea. Possessive adjectives are used to show ownership or possession. In academic writing, it is important to use the appropriate part of speech to convey accurate and clear information.
