Can we use 'it' in this case...
We have been told:
‘which' and ‘it' are used to replace a noun, not a sentence or idea; ‘so' is used to replace a verb/idea in a sentence.
Based on the above, is the following sentence correct:
Playing football is good for health because it makes your heart healthy.
In the above sentence, 'it' would refer to 'Playing football'. So, is this usage of 'it' correct?
Thanks.
