Answer 3

Well the antecedent is "each member," and the answer has to match up with the antecedent. Since we don't know what all the genders are, it couldn't be "his" or "her", but "his or her" would be the best answer because "each member" is considered to be singular, and "their" is singular.

Answer 4

His or her is correct.
