Explanation

The pronoun in this sentence serves as the object of the verb 'sent' along with 'Charlie'. In English grammar, objects of transitive verbs require objective case pronouns like 'me' rather than nominative 'I'. The structure 'He sent [Charlie and me]' uses a compound object where both components should be in the objective case.

A Correct answer
Explanation

This sentence uses an emphatic structure following 'it is' where the pronoun serves as the subject of the relative clause 'who am'. In 'it is [pronoun] who/that [verb]' constructions, the pronoun should be in the nominative case because it functions as the subject of the following relative clause. The verb 'am' further confirms that 'I' is the subject form required.

A Correct answer
Explanation

In this interrogative sentence, the pronoun functions as the subject of the verb 'gave' in the relative clause 'who gave you all that misinformation'. Subjects of clauses require nominative case pronouns, so 'they' is correct. The structure 'Was it [pronoun] who...?' is a cleft sentence emphasizing the subject, which requires the nominative form.
