I am attacking this through grammar strategy for Blank 1. Learning will be in line or against genetic programming. By this logic, I eliminate A and left with B,C,D,E. For the second blank, I know the idea has to be synonomous with “most instinctive”, I am able to then eliminate B and D. However, I am getting stuck in choosing between “stereotyped” and “familiar”. Familiar means you know it, it is not new to you → which can be said to be very basic thus instinctive. Stereotyped means a cliche so again known and basic.
How do I differentiate ?
