Explanation:

As per the given sentence, though the role of ‘horizontal stratification’ has been acknowledged in higher education, not much attention is given to it in compulsory schooling. ‘Whereas’ means ‘on the contrary’ and ‘while’ means ‘even though’. Both these words can be correctly used to fit the first blank. however, since ‘horizontal stratification’ has to be a part of higher education, only ‘within’ which means ‘inside’ correctly fits the second blank as well as fourth blank. ‘Too less’, ‘for less’ and ‘further less’ are grammatically incorrect in the third blank. ‘Far fewer’ is incorrect in the third blanks as it is a comparative degree while nothing has been compared in the sentence. Also, ‘fewer’ is used for countable nouns while nothing countable has been mentioned in the given sentence. Thus only ‘far less’ correctly fits the third blank.
Hence, the correct answer is option 4.
