Question

Read the following statement:
While start-ups have__________ reach, _____ they introduce ________ products, they open-up ________markets.
Fill in the blanks meaningfully, in the above statement, from the following options.

• A. Limited, since, new, innovative
• B. Restricted, while, innovative, new
• C. Restricted, when, new, innovative
• D. Limited, when, innovative, new
• E. Limited, if, new, innovative

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Step 1: First Blank 
Start-ups usually begin with fewer resources and networks. Hence the correct word is “Limited reach”. Words like “restricted” also fit partly, but “limited” is more natural and common.

Step 2: Second Blank
The connector should be “when” because the condition applies specifically at the time of introducing new products. “Since,” “while,” or “if” would make the sentence awkward.

Step 3: Third Blank
Start-ups thrive by creating innovative products. So “innovative” is the correct word, not “new” in this position.

Step 4: Fourth Blank
The result of innovative products is that start-ups open up new markets. Words like “innovative markets” or “restricted markets” don’t make sense here.

Step 5: Final Statement
Thus, the completed sentence is:
“While start-ups have limited reach, when they introduce innovative products, they open-up new markets.”

Final Answer:
\[ \boxed{\text{Limited, when, innovative, new}} \]
