Let us first understand the meaning of the words:

To overpower means to defeat or overcome with superior strength.$

To homogenize means to make something uniform or similar.$

To hegemonize means to subject a population or region to a dominant political or social power.$

To consolidate means to make something physically stronger.$

The only apt options here that can make the sentence meaningful are 'overpowers' or 'hegemonizes', viz, A and C. 

Therefore, the correct answer is option 5.
