Explanation:

- Who: Used for people as the subject or object of a verb.
- Whom: Used for people as the object of a verb or preposition.
- Whose: Used to show possession.
- Which: Used for things or animals.
- That: Used for both people and things, often in restrictive clauses.

In each case, the relative pronoun connects the two sentences by replacing the repeated noun and linking the main clause with the relative clause.
