The option that describes what influences Priya's perspective in the story "From Scratch" is: the people with whom Priya spends the most time in America. This is because the sentence follows with "She was used to shopping in open-air markets in India, where the colors were brighter, the smells more pungent, and the vendors much more entertaining." suggesting that Priya is comparing her experience in the American supermarket with her previous experience in Indian markets, which could have been influenced by the people she used to go to the market with in India.
