Question

the root puls means drive or push. what does the word compulsion mean?
a strong urge
a treaty or other formal agreement
a widely known story

Explanation:

To determine the meaning of "compulsion", we analyze the root "puls" (meaning drive or push) and the prefix "com - " (meaning together or intensive). A "compulsion" involves a strong internal push or drive, which aligns with "a strong urge". The other options: "a treaty..." relates to agreements (unrelated to "push/drive"), and "a widely known story" is about narratives (also unrelated).

Answer:

a strong urge
