Answer 1

Answer:

The emergency caused the crisis team to exhaust all the response methods in its safety plan.

Explanation:

In simple terms, the word "exhaust" can mean "to use up" "to drain out" or "to make something tired. So, it simply means something that is used up to the brim, until there is nothing left.

According to the sentence from "Play", the word "exhaust" is used in such a way that it signifies or denotes how each play material must be used up to their limit before new material is given/ added. Similarly, in the same vein, the word "exhaust" can be used in the sentence where the emergency caused the response methods of safety plans to be used up.

Thus, the correct use of the same word "exhaust" is seen in the last sentence.
