Correct Answer: called for
Solution : The first option is the correct answer for the sentence because 'called for' means 'required' and makes the explanation of the sentence as 'the manager was required an explanation for his code of conduct'.
'Called off' means to cancel; 'called to' means to shout at someone to draw their attention and 'called up' means to contact someone by phone; all of which are out of context with the sentence.
Therefore, the complete statement should be "The manager was called for an explanation of his conduct."
