Option 2 : Normative case has no relationship with a finite verb.

The correct answer is 'Option 2'.

In English grammar, case refers to the relationship between one word and another. It specifically applies to only nouns and pronouns and explains their functions. There are mainly three cases - Subjective case (also known as Nominative case), Objective case (also known as accusative) and Possessive case (also known as Genitive).
Based on the above mentioned point, it is clear that Option 1 is correct
Possessive case indicates possession or belongingness between two nouns or a noun and a pronoun.
- Ex - That is my book.

Jerry's house is near the lake.

Based on the above mentioned point, it is clear that Option 3 is correct.
Objective case refers to a noun or a pronoun working as an object in the sentence. The object may be a direct object, indirect object, or object of a preposition. Ex - The doctor is taking care of her.
Based on the above point, it is clear that Option 4 is correct.
Nominative or Subjective case refers to when a noun is used as a the subject of a verb or as the complement of a being verb. It is used especially to identify the subject of a finite verb. For example, in the sentence, The tree fell on my car", "the tree" is in the nominative case as it is the the subject of the main verb "fell".
Based on the above mentioned point, it is clear that the statement given in Option 2 contradicts the English Grammar rule.

Therefore, Option 2 is the correct answer to the question

Mistake Points

There is a spelling mistake in Option 2.The word Normative has been used instead of the word Nominative.
However, it has been rectified in the solution.
