Answer: Based on the context of this excerpt from A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens, the meaning of the word "jocund" is b) lighthearted.

Explanation: The word "jocund" is an adjective and it is used to refer to <u>someone who is lighthearted, that is to say someone who is cheerful and happy</u>. Moreover, in this excerpt, "jocund" is premodifying "travellers"; therefore, it has been used to ascribe a quality/attribute to this noun. <u>The phrase that is part of the context and that most contributes to infer the meaning of "jocund" is "in great spirit". </u>

Answer:

Disturb

Explanation:

Given:

In fact, our bodies have a hard time recovering from medicines like antibiotics because they disrupt the balance of helpful bacteria.

Both disturb and disrupt have the same prefix, "dis". A negative prefix is dis-. It means "nothing" or "nothing at all." When we add dis- to the beginning of a word, it takes on a completely different meaning. 

Also, the definition of "disrupt" is, "interrupt (an event, activity, or process) by causing a disturbance or problem" The definition of "disturb" is, interfere with the normal arrangement or functioning of". As we can see, they are practically the same definition, just reworded.

Hope this helps and if it does, don't be afraid to give my answer a "Thanks" and maybe a Brainliest if it's correct?
