Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Answer: Concede

Why this is correct: "Submit" in this sentence means to yield or give in, and "concede" is a close synonym meaning to admit or yield.

Why the other choices are incorrect:

  • Meet — usually means to encounter or to satisfy (for example, meet requirements); not to yield.

  • Defy — means to resist or refuse to obey, which is the opposite of submitting.

  • Attract — means to draw toward or pull in, unrelated to yielding or giving in.
