Explanation:

In English grammar, words are broadly categorized into two major types: content words and function words.


1. Function Words (Structure Words): These words express grammatical relationships between other words in a sentence. They have little or no lexical meaning on their own. Function words include conjunctions, prepositions, pronouns, articles, and auxiliary verbs.
• In the given options, "And" is a coordinating conjunction used to connect words, phrases, or clauses. Therefore, it is a function word.


2. Content Words (Lexical Words): These words carry primary meaning and refer to objects, actions, qualities, or concepts. They include nouns, main verbs, adjectives, and adverbs.
"Champion" is a noun/verb (content word).
"Handsome" is an adjective (content word).
"Seizing" is a verb/participle (content word).


Hence, among the given choices, "And" is the correct function word.
