Correct Answer: since


Solution : The correct choice is the third option .

Explanation : Since indicates the starting point of an action or event, suggesting that the rain started in the morning, emphasising the continuous action from the morning until now.

For is used to indicate the duration of an action or a period of time, which is not appropriate in the given context.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "It has been raining since morning."
