Correct Answer: inculcated


Solution : The third option is the correct answer.

The sentence structure and context suggest that the passage is discussing the instillation or cultivation of a habit or behaviour from an early age. Inculcated means to instill an idea, habit, or attitude in someone through persistent instruction or repetition, and it fits well in the context of the passage, conveying the idea that cleanliness and tidiness are taught or ingrained in individuals from a young age.

Therefore, the correct answer is inculcated.
