Carcass,
Are provoke, engender and induce same. Though I selected the correct answer but can you pls provide the difference in terms of context.
Is provoke too extreme for the above sentence compared to engender and induce?

Hey,
Provoke = arouse, it can be used in terms of agitating something. Mostly in a -ve context.
engender & induce are mean that something cause to occur or persuade, which is right in the context of the given sentence.
Please ask if not clear
