Question

the root fic or fac means do or make. what does the word facilitate mean?
to observe a legal proceeding

to cause something to be more efficient

to occur in chronological order

Explanation:

The root "fac" means "do" or "make". The word "facilitate" has this root. Let's analyze each option:

• "to observe a legal proceeding" has no relation to "do/make" and is about observing, not matching.
• "to cause something to be more efficient" fits with the root meaning as it involves making something (a process, task) more efficient (doing/making it better).
• "to occur in chronological order" is about time sequence, not related to "do/make".

Answer:

to cause something to be more efficient
