Explanation:

We need to choose the most appropriate word to fill in the blank. "Inference" means a conclusion reached on the basis of evidence and reasoning. "Counterpart" refers to a person or thing that corresponds to or has the same function as another. "Bias" is a tendency to prefer one person, thing, or idea over another. "Prowess" means skill or expertise in a particular activity. Here, "bias" makes the most sense as it implies that due to Hollywood's age - related bias, great actresses are not seen.

Answer:

C. bias
