Question

1. what does the root in admit mean?

to put or place
to hold
to drive
to send

Explanation:

The word "admit" has the root "mit" (from Latin "mittere") which means "to send". Breaking down "admit", "ad - " means "to" or "toward", and "mit" means "to send", so "admit" means to send (someone or something) in or to allow entry.

Answer:

The option "to send" (the fourth option, assuming the options are in the order: 1. to put or place, 2. to hold, 3. to drive, 4. to send). So the correct answer is the option with "to send".
