Correct Answer: Deferential


Solution : To complete the sentence correctly, we need a word that conveys how the person's manner made the other person feel, which is mesmerized. The word "deferential" means showing respect or humble submission. If someone's manner is deferential, it implies a high level of respect and politeness.

So, the correct sentence is: "She was so deferential in her manner that he was mesmerized by her."
