What is the part of speech that answers question what kind?

The part of speech that answers the question "what kind" is an adjective.

Here's why:

* Adjectives describe nouns: They provide more information about a noun by telling us its qualities, features, or characteristics.

* "What kind" asks for a quality or characteristic: For example, "What kind of car is it?" The answer will describe the car's type (e.g., "It's a red sports car").

Example:

* "What kind of music do you like?"

* "I like classical music." ("Classical" is an adjective describing the type of music.)
