    segment

    Correct Answer

    delineation

    Incorrect Answer

    boundary

    Incorrect Answer

    surplus

    Incorrect Answer

    edge

    Incorrect Answer
    Explanation:

    Correct Answer is (a).If you delineate something, you describe it, draw it or define it, often in a lot of detail. Clearly, it doesn’t make sense here.
    'Boundary' means a dividing line, hence it is unsuitable as well for the blank.
    Similarly, both the words 'surplus' and 'edge' are not adding anything meaningful to the context and hence can be eliminated as well. 
    A segment of something is one part of it, considered separately from the rest. Therefore, out of the available words, the best choice would be 'segment'.
    Option A is the correct answer.
