Correct Answer: Desirous


Solution : The correct answer is option 2.

Desirous of following her passion, she agreed to some condition.

Explanation:

Any member of the group of words that modify nouns and pronouns is referred to as an adjective.
- Let's examine the root verb's definition:
With the exception of the second option, Desirous, all of the words provided in the options are different verb tenses.
- Desirous is an adjective that denotes the presence of or character of desire. 'Of' is always used as a preposition after it.
Therefore, in the provided blank, we require the adjective "desirous" to qualify the noun "passion."
