Which sentence correctly uses ‘who’ rather than ‘which’ to refer to a person?

AThe man who called you is my uncle.
BThe man what called you is my uncle.
CThe man whom called you is my uncle.
DThe man which called you is my uncle.

Explanation

‘Who’ is used to refer to people, while ‘which’ is used to refer to things, animals, or ideas, not people. Since ‘the man’ refers to a person, ‘who’ is the correct relative pronoun, giving ‘The man who called you is my uncle,’ rather than incorrectly using ‘which,’ which is reserved for non-human subjects.
