Correct Answer: for


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Explanation: "For" is the appropriate preposition to indicate fondness or liking for something. In this context, "for" is functioning as a preposition of purpose or to indicate a specific relationship between "fondness" and "tennis". It shows the reason or the object of the fondness, expressing the connection or liking towards tennis.

Therefore, the complete sentence would be: She has inherited her fondness for tennis from her parents.
