The best option that would accomplish the goal for using "doggedly" is C. <u>chronically</u>.

<h3>What is point of the underlined word?</h3>

Doggedly refers to something that is showing persistence.
It means therefore, that adolescents are persistently tired.

The best word to replicate this meaning would be "chronically" because it is a negative word that is used to described a condition that is persistent much like the persistent fatigue of these adolescents.
