Choose the correct adverb to complete the art student's critique of a modern painting.

The artist’s late geometric period was _____ influenced by the architecture of the industrial cities she visited in her youth.

The correct answer is heavily.

"Heavily" is the natural adverb to use with "influenced" or "reliant" when describing a strong effect or impact. While words like "strictly" or "fiercely" are valid adverbs, they do not form a natural collocation with "influenced."
