A Correct answer
Explanation

Meticulous means showing great attention to detail, very careful and precise. 'Punctilious' means showing great attention to detail or correct behavior, often with emphasis on rules and etiquette - they are very close synonyms. 'Ethical' means moral, 'Reprobate' means a depraved or unprincipled person, and 'Cutthroat' means ruthless or competitive - none are synonyms of meticulous.
