Accepted Answer

Introduction / Context:Choose the option that can be built from the letters of CORRESPONDING. Check availability and multiplicity for each character. Given Data / Assumptions: Key letters in CORRESPONDING: C, O(2), R(2), E(1), S(1), P(1), N(2), D(1), I(1), G(1). Concept / Approach:Filter out options needing any missing letter or an extra copy beyond counts. Step-by-Step Solution: DISCERN → letters D, I, S, C, E, R, N are all present within single-count needs → formable ✔. RESPONSE → needs two E's and two S's; only E=1 and S=1 → not formable. REPENT → needs T (absent) → not formable. CORRECT → needs T (absent) and two C's (only one C) → not formable. CROSSBONE → needs B (absent) → not formable. Verification / Alternative check:Re-check DISCERN against counts; all requirements satisfied without overuse. Why Other Options Are Wrong:They require missing letters (T, B) or exceed available multiplicity (extra E or S). Common Pitfalls:Assuming any semantically related word is acceptable; the test is purely letter-feasibility. Final Answer:DISCERN
