inveigh
assuage
permeate

a person who handles stressful situations calmly is showing

callow
jaded
aplomb
meritorious

a quality that is inherent or essential to something is

provincial
drivel
unctuous

Explanation:

• For the first question: "Inveigh" means to speak angrily and forcefully against something. "Assuage" means to make something less intense (like pain or anger), "permeate" means to spread through, and "surmise" means to guess.
• For the second question: "Aplomb" means self - confidence and composure, especially in a demanding situation. "Callow" means young and inexperienced, "jaded" means bored or lacking enthusiasm from over - exposure, and "meritorious" means deserving reward or praise.
• For the third question: None of the options provided ("provincial" means narrow - minded or related to a province, "drivel" means nonsense, "unctuous" means excessively oily or insincere) are correct. But if we assume it's a mis - list and we consider the meaning of inherent/essential, we note the analysis of the given words.

Answer:

1. inveigh
2. aplomb
3. (No correct option in the given list as "provincial", "drivel", "unctuous" do not mean inherent/essential. If we assume it's a different intended word - but based on the given choices, there is an error. However, following the process for the first two):

• First question: A. inveigh
• Second question: C. aplomb
