Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
"Technology hasn’t left anything behind, it has _________ almost everything. From the phones we use to the medicines we consume; it is all a product of technology."

Explanation of the Correct Answer:
· The word "affected" is the correct choice because it means "to have an impact or influence on something."
· The sentence implies that technology has influenced almost every aspect of life, making "affected" the most appropriate choice.
Other options:
· (b) "effected" → Incorrect because "effected" means "brought about or caused something to happen," which does not fit the context.
· (c) "dislodged" → Incorrect because "dislodged" means "to forcefully remove from a position," which is not the intended meaning.
· (d) "evicted" → Incorrect as "evicted" means "to force someone to leave a place," which does not fit in the given context.
Thus, the correct answer is (a) "affected."
