The part of speech that the word "mine" has in the sentence is "noun" so option A) is correct.
The word "mine" is a pronoun that functions as a replacement of a noun. In this case the pronoun "mine" is a substitute for a noun.
The rest of the parts of speech provided as options do not reflect the function of the pronoun "mine" in the sentence.
To sum up, the pronoun "mine" functions as noun in this sentence.
(Mine) in this sentence functions as a PRONOUN. A possessive pronoun.
But since pronoun isn't one of the options, I think we could also say that it functions as an adjective. Because Lilly is describing the toy as hers.
The preamble of the Federal Constitution says:
"We, the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."
It was we, the people; not we, the white male citizens; nor yet we, the male citizens; but we, the whole people, who formed the Union. And we formed it, not to give the blessings of liberty, but to secure them; not to the half of ourselves and the half of our posterity, but to the whole people - women as well as men. And it is a downright mockery to talk to women of their enjoyment of the blessings of liberty while they are denied the use of the only means of securing them provided by this democratic-republican government - the ballot.
