    Solution

    At the beginning of the sentence тАШmeticulousтАЩ is an adjective as it defines the noun тАШattentionтАЩ. Latter in part B, after тАШmeticulousтАЩ there is a verb тАШconductedтАЩ. Adverbs define verbs. Hence, we use an adverb not an adjective. Therefore, тАШmeticulousтАЩ should be replaced with тАШmeticulouslyтАЩ.
