[Answer]
外食は野菜不足になり（2 がち）だ。
Eating out tends to lead to a lack of vegetables.
〜がち
= something happens often / tends to happen
It shows a tendency, often with a slightly negative nuance.
verb masu-form＋がち
なり｜ます
なり｜がち
In this sentence, the speaker wants to say:
“When you eat out, you tend to not get enough vegetables.”
So, がち is the most natural choice.
Other Choices:
〜げ
= looks like ~ / seems ~
Used with emotion-based adjectives or 〜たい form (want to do)
e.g.
うれしげ (seems happy),
行きたげ (seems to want to go)
× なりげ
〜もの
= something natural or expected
You can say: 「野菜不足になるものだ」
× なりものだ
〜っぽい
= looks like / has the quality of
Used with nouns or stems of adjectives/verbs, but not with 〜masu-form.
If used with a verb, it must be the dictionary form, e.g. なるっぽい
× なりっぽい
I hope this explanation helps! 😊
