before the search-and-rescue training, the police captain ______ the recruits about the process for communicating with the authorities.

Explanation:

To show the police captain taught the recruits how to do something, we analyze the options: "instructed" means to teach or tell someone how to do something, which fits the context of teaching the process. "Advised" is more about giving advice, and "notified" is about informing. So "instructed" is correct.

Answer:

instructed
