Answer:

The answer is (B) tumult.

Explanation:

Tumult is defined as a “loud noise or disorder”, which makes it synonymous with commotion, which is defined as “a confused and noisy state”. Anarchy is not quite suitable because it means “chaos due to lack of authority”, while agitation means “being nervously excited”. Nor is sedition right because this word means “preaching against a monarch or state’s authority”. Other words that can be synonymous with commotion are ruckus, clamor, and racket.
