Nakool Can anyone please tell me the difference between "brought up" and "upbringing"? Not much difference, but you need a noun to fill in the blank, so c) is the correct form, the gerund.

Upbringing is the noun form. Bring up is the verb form. They both refer to the same thing, but you have to use the one required by the grammar of the sentence. In this case the noun form is correct.
