    Solution

    Only the adverb ‘relatively’ is correct here. It means ‘in comparison with other similar things or with what you expect’. Others are inappropriate with ‘low share’. The economic opportunity slipped away for Kerala, which received a relatively low share of public sector investments in infrastructure, and research and academic institutions.
