3. Because her brothers retired, he forgot to shut the gate, and the dog ran out.

Sentence 1 has correct pronoun and antecedent agreement.
The sentence that has correct pronoun and antecedent agreement is:
1. Cara wanted to go outside, but it was raining and she could not find our rain jacket.
To determine which sentence has correct pronoun and antecedent agreement, we need to identify the pronoun and its antecedent in each sentence. A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun, while an antecedent is the noun that the pronoun refers to.
Let's analyze each sentence:
1. In this sentence, the pronoun "it" is referring to the noun "raining." The antecedent for "she" is "Cara," and the antecedent for "our" is implied possessive (possessive of "Cara and whoever she refers to as 'our'"). Therefore, this sentence has correct pronoun and antecedent agreement.
2. In this sentence, the pronoun "they" is referring to the noun "neighbors." However, the pronoun "their" is not in agreement with the possessive form of the noun "neighbors." It should be "their." Therefore, this sentence does not have correct pronoun and antecedent agreement.
3. In this sentence, the pronoun "he" is referring to the noun "brothers." However, "he" does not agree in gender with "brothers" because "brothers" is plural and should be referred to with a plural pronoun such as "they." Therefore, this sentence does not have correct pronoun and antecedent agreement.
4. In this sentence, the pronoun "she" is referring to the noun "teacher." The antecedent for "she" is "teacher." The verb "ride" is incorrect; it should be "rode." Additionally, the pronoun "she" should not be followed by "students" because it does not agree in number as "students" is plural. Therefore, this sentence does not have correct pronoun and antecedent agreement.
In conclusion, only sentence 1 has correct pronoun and antecedent agreement.
