Answer 2

 правильна відповідь any

Answer 3

There aren't any potatoes on my plate.

The correct answer is (a) any.

In this sentence, the word "any" is used to indicate a lack of potatoes on the plate. "Any" is a determiner that is used to refer to an indefinite amount or number of something. It is commonly used in negative sentences or questions when there is an absence or nonexistence of something.

The other options, (b) a, (c) some, and (d) much, are not appropriate in this context.

(b) "a" is used to refer to a single item or a specific quantity. In this case, we are not talking about a specific potato, but rather the absence of any potatoes.

(c) "some" is used to refer to an unspecified but positive amount or number of something. Since there are no potatoes on the plate, "some" would not be appropriate.

(d) "much" is used to refer to a large quantity or amount. Since we are not talking about a specific quantity, but rather the absence of potatoes, "much" would not be appropriate either.

Therefore, the correct answer is (a) any.
