The explorers were lacking some members hence they were bound to fail.
The word, explorers, tells us that as the failure was evident, they must be lacking members who have geographical knowledge.

both the parts before and after comma will support each other.
Now in 1st blank, we can see that some members were not there in team who had knowledge regarding exploration. Hence EXPLORATION can be our guide word here in 1st blank.
Now for 2nd blank, if there is something which team lacks, it is destined to fail.
On seeing the options, we can very well say that GEOGRAPHICAL and DOOMED matches with our assumptions
