E Correct answer
Explanation

The word 'position' fits both contexts perfectly. In sentence I, 'took up the position of Marketing Manager' refers to a job appointment or role. In sentence II, 'remain in a standing position' describes maintaining a physical posture or stance for the yoga exercise. No other word works grammatically and contextually in both sentences.
