The correct answers are options B, C and D.

Marco Polo's cultural context are represented first in the quote about the malik of Homuz who had a castle. <em>Malik </em>means <em>king </em>in Arabic, and the Kingdom of Hormuz existed in the Persian Gulf between the 10th and 17th centuries.

Secondly, the cite about ships which made voyages in twenty days also refers to the cultural framework of Polo's time.

Finally, there is a reference to Saracen people, a term used to mention Muslims in the Middle Ages.

Which meaning of influence best defines the word as it is used in this sentence?
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Option C

The ability to have an effect on the behavior, character, or actions of someone else

Explanation:

The word influence has quite a number of meanings which may vary based on the context which it is used.

We can analyse the situation presented in the problem statement "Dara could influence my decision to vote for Joy in the student body election " to find the meaning based on this context.

We understand that the influence used here most likely means that Dara can affect the choice I make for a candidate during the election. If this happens it means that Dara can affect my behaviour, character or action, as regards to taking a decision during the election.

This makes option C the most appropriate answer
