Active and actively both relate to doing something, but in slightly different ways. Active is an adjective indicating a state of being, describing something that is happening right now, and something that is always busy or lively. For example, if someone is active, it means they are always doing things and not just sitting still. Actively, as the corresponding adverb, is about doing something with energy or effort. It shows how an action is done.
Listen to the audio and fill in the blank with the correct form: active or actively.
But researchers and companies are BLANK working on addressing these issues.
actively
In this case, the word is related to how researchers and companies are working, not qualifying them. Use the adverb.
