We need an adjective to modify the noun DISCOVERIES. The sentence seeks to convey that the program gave out bigger rewards for finding bugs in older versions of Chrome's JavaScript engine, this led to important discoveries, like finding a bug that had been around for a long time. SIGNIFICANT (important or noticeable) will fit here. Thus, B is the right answer. The other options are either grammatically or contextually incorrect: Adjusted (past participle form of verb) - altered or moved something slightly in order to achieve the desired fit. Basically (adverb) - in the most essential respects; fundamentally. Consecutively (adverb) - one after another without interruption. Adversely (adverb) - in a way that prevents success or development; harmfully or unfavourably. Â
