Answer 1

The correct option is B itinerant

Here, the adjective 'itinerant', which means travelling from place to place, best fits the given context of the sentences and conveys what the sentence means to say. Thus B is the answer.

Because Elaine's father was a field entomologist who trekked over the continent studying insect infestations and insisted on taking his young family with him, Elaine and her brother had an itinerant childhood.
