Correct Answer:  to
 


Solution : The correct answer is option 1.

Explanation:

According to grammatical conventions, the blank in the given sentence needs to be filled with the proper preposition.
- In this context, the adjective "Senior" lacks any superlative or positive degree.
- Due to its use as a comparative degree, the adjective "Senior" requires the preposition "to".
e.g- Children always respected their parents as they are elder to him.
 With the provided justification and illustration, we can conclude that the word "to" is the best preposition to use in the blank.
- Thus, alternative is the right response 1
