Explanation:

Negligent is the term that is used to describe the "act of failing" to take proper care on something or on someone. The word can be used in many places like “your negligence causes loss to the company”. This is one of the way in which the word negligence can be used.

The appropriate answer for the given "fill in the blank" is was negligent because no other word or phrase from the option can be as suitable and gives right grammatical value as the word “was negligent”. Grammar and the way which the sentence sounds are very important for any sentence to be perfect and look like a qualified one.
