Correct Answer - Option 3 : upon

The correct answer is upon.

  • Upon is a preposition which means the same as on.
  • Sometimes it also means immediately after.
  • For example, Upon further review, his suspension was retracted.
  • But here, upon is used after the verb eating instead of on.

From above given points, we can infer that the complete sentence is worrying is eating upon his heart.

  • Into: It's a preposition that describes the position of within or inside.
  • For example:
    • Please help me to sort these files into different folders.
  • At: A preposition to show an exact position.
  • For example:
    • She left the letter at the countertop..
  • In: As a preposition it points out the location
  • For example:
    • We can organize the meeting in the garden.
